- SB2188 died in House State Affairs this week. But the chairman, Ken King, a Republican, voted against it. That means, as part of the prevailing side, he can revive it in future. “We’re still working on it that’s all I can say at this moment,” he told our Capitol reporter Blaise Gainey. #txlegeApr 30, 2025 20:43
- One member of the committee, John Smithee, was absent for the vote. He told Blaise that it was his understanding that King voted against the bill intentionally so it be revived at a later time. The committee meets again today. The bill isn’t on the hearing list at this time. #txlege
