The Democrats return and work resumes in the Texas House - What's Your Point?
Democrats return to the Texas House
The WYP panel talks about retunring Democrats and the Texas House being able to move forward on legislation.
Houston -
For the first time in six long weeks - the Texas House of Representatives on Thursday reached a quorum.
It was an event which marks the likely conclusion of a mass elopement of democratic lawmakers aimed at stalling a republican election reform bill - critics have labeled "voter suppression".
Republicans have countered that their measure actually makes it "easier to vote - but harder to cheat".
Frankly, if you've watched this show before - you're familiar with the fundamentals.
panel - the protesting democrats have caught lots of heat for simultaneously stalling other measures like felony bond reform and additional benefits for retired teachers.....so was this defection ultimately a winning or a losing play?
