Texas Legislate meets every two years for a reason.
“Texas Legislature meets every two years for a reason.”
Gideon John Tucker (February 10, 1826 – July 1899) was an American lawyer, newspaper editor and politician. In 1866, as Surrogate of New York, he wrote in a decision of a will case: “No man’s life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session.”.
Put into Texan: it’s the best way to keep the usual suspects from screwing up everybody else’s life.
One of the great things about Texas! We don’t have our idiots always able to pass the legislation of the current crisis. Our Constitution is a mess, but they can’t pass laws wildly hilly without Texans voting on the issue. We also have to have a balanced budget. It ain’t perfect, but these particulars about Texas politics help.
Bingo! We have a winner. We are safest when the legislature is not in session.
