BIG NEWS ! 
Our Resolution, HCR 49, Had a House Committee Hearing on Thursday April 9th!


Now we need you to call and urge them to vote YES on HCR 49


Here is a link to the Committee Hearing Video: (Our bill starts at 2:10:40)

Many people from Dallas, Houston, Austin and surrounding area came to the Capitol for this hearing. Several had to leave before our bill came up but we ended up with 10 people giving testimony, which is great. The Chairman, Phil King graciously allowed all to testify. 

For our resolution to get to the floor of the Texas House it must now be passed by this Committee. We need people to call the committee members and urge them to vote YES. See the list of Representatives at the bottom of this page with contact information.

At the bottom of this page is the list of Committee members who will decide the House fate of HCR 49, Please take a few minutes to call and urge them to vote YES on HCR 49.

If you are a constituent it is very important that you let them know.
