Re: Texas Poker Legislation goes to vote this week
Rep. Menendez (the bill's sponsor) has to leave the session early due to a family illness. They just elevated another of his bills to the top of the docket so he can leave...maybe they will elevate 3186 next...

Re: Texas Poker Legislation goes to vote this week
Rep. Menendez presented a different bill as stated in my previous post, but then the legislature went back to the original docket. HB 3186 "leap frogging" the docket was wishful thinking.

The House recessed until tomorrow. HB 3186 is dead unless it gets attached to another bill (which is unlikely). Rep. Menendez will have to try again in 2009.

I don't think this is possible in TX. Pretty sure house rules do not allow 2 subject bills.
Though I could be wrong. |

Re: Texas Poker Legislation goes to vote this week
Isn't recessing until tomorrow a good thing?
