Update on Session March 27, 2015
This week in the Legislature…
I hear the phrase “we shouldn’t tie the hands of future legislators” anytime we look at structural improvements to the way we govern the state. While I have no doubt about the good intentions of the men and women who tell me this, I also have no doubt that the Texas Constitution and all of human history makes it remarkably clear that constraining the behavior of politicians is so important that I would rather tie the hands of those in power too tightly than not tightly enough.
