Texas has $1B in physical gold
Governor Perry is showing support for a bill to bring home rare and precious metals the state already owns.
Republican Rep. Giovanni Capriglione of Southlake introduced House Bill 35-05. It would create the Texas Bullion Depository, which would house the physical gold bars the state owns.
The Texas Tribune reports the state has a billion dollars in physical gold, which is owned by the University of Texas Investment Management Company.
The gold is currently stored in the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
"If we can securely store this gold in Texas and do it at a lower cost to the state than where it is currently stored then we should take a look at that," the Governor said in a statement from his press office to KXAN on Friday. "Number one priority is that it is securely stored."

Yes. That will tell you the purity of the skin.
Conversation means you don’t control the other person’s responses.
It’s not a dirty word to those making good money from it.
Conversation means you say something worth listening to.
Otherwise, it's just noise.
Ain’t that the way it always is?
I was thinking of the two gun mini-uzi rig from “Invasion USA”. It looks like a modified Galco that Don Johnson wore on “Miami Vice”.
Austin angst. Good for you, spurt-X.
“Fracing” might be a dirty word, up here or anywhere- just what does that mean, genius?
If I have to begin explaining oil and gas production terms to ya, its too late, Curly Joe.
Back in the Jerry Jeff and Rusty Weir day, Austin was easy tolerable if you ignored the Hippies.
Thanks.
Okay.
