Putting the Voters Before the Legislature

Join us tomorrow at 9 am for a statewide conference call. Reply for details if you don’t already have the conference number.

Topic: What Comes First, the Cart or the Horse — building local chapters of the League of Independent Voters of Texas.

We’ll also discuss this hearing on Monday at the Capitol on an important eminent domain reform bill. Read this blog piece by Calvin Tillman on Senate Bill 474. (Note: Please call the Committee Members to express your support, especially Sen. Lois Kolkhorst, the sponsor of the bill.)

Don’t forget to mark your calendar for next Saturday’s (March 14, 3 to 5 pm) “Good Bills, Bad Bills” event held in Bastrop (Neighbor’s Restaurant, 601 Chestnut) and STREAMED online from 3:30 to 4:30. Details here.

Our credibility is based on numbers and roots across the state. Our point is you can’t get there without the voters in front of the legislature — not the other way around.
