Is the Texas State Senate Dodging HJR19?????

HJR 19 has passed the Texas House. The Senate needs to be encouraged to pass the constitutional amendment rather than just a statutory bill. Time is short. If the Senate adjourns today and does not come back until Monday, the measure may die because of a lack of time to address it.

The Senate needs to be encouraged are the key words

Today and now are mine.

If this bill fails we are back to the SCOTUS ruling. Its time to get very active. While your at it ask about Rep. Dutton amendment. I feel it needs to be defeated.

A "statutory bill" is at best a temporary solution to the problem. It could be a starting point that provides time to get a constitutional amendment to the people for a vote.

Thanks for the Info, I'll tell you what, if this doesn't end up starting another civil war in this country, I don't know much else that will.

According to Kronberg:

SENATE PASSES EMINENT DOMAIN BILL ON VOTE OF 23-6
