I'm gonna take you to your mama, pay day. –Mississippi John Hurt The unregulated industry that gouges working-class Texans with obscene interest rates on small loans again is fighting proposed regulations. Although Texas prohibits usurious interest rates, the industry dodges these protections by organizing as unregulated middlemen. These so-called “credit service organizations” link borrowers to lenders who are subject to interest rate caps. When the unregulated middlemen tack on their exorbitant fees, however, loans secured by paychecks or car titles can carry annual effective interest rates exceeding 1,000 percent. Texas now has more than 3,000 outlets for these lucrative loans, with pawnshops and even rental centers getting into a piece of the action. Fantastic returns are worth defending. Just in the two-year 2010 election cycle the industry contributed $1,369,542 to Texas politicians. If the payday industry lent out this same $1.4 million at 1,000 percent interest over the two-year election cycle, it could have grossed $166 million. That’s how much these lenders care about their loophole. Democratic Senator Wendy Davis has led attempts to regulate the industry. Her Senate Bill 253 would eliminate the loophole for credit service organizations, subjecting them to state usury laws and prohibiting fee-intensive rollovers of these loans. Jay Shipowitz, president of Irving-based Ace Cash Express, recently testified that, “If this bill is passed, we will be forced to shut our stores in Texas.”1 Five other lawmakers, including former Speaker Tom Craddick, have introduced similar reform bills.2 Republican Rep.

    Kesha Rogers: Independent 'Classical' Candidate for Congress From

    INTERVIEW Kesha Rogers: Independent ‘Classical’ Candidate for Congress from Texas’ 9th C.D. Oct. 23—In an interview today, less than two weeks before the November 6 Midterm elections, independent candidate Kesha Rogers stressed that her campaign is finding an absolute thirst for big ideas and the types of crash-program problem solving that is characteristic of the space pro- gram. Rogers, who is spearheading the LaRouche PAC’s Campaign to Secure the Future’s intervention into the Midterms, is running as an inde- pendent in Texas’ 9th C.D. against in- cumbent Democrat Al Green. Green positioned himself to lead the insane impeachment drive for the Democrats against Donald Trump in grandstanding Congressional speeches in 2017 and early 2018. In those speeches, Green proclaimed, contrary to the explicit words of the Constitution, that impeachment was Cartoons lampooning Rogers’ opponent, Democrat incumbent Greedy Al Green, who a matter of partisan whim, that the has introduced legislation to impeach President Trump. Multi-millionaire Green Constitution did not require that the presides over one of the poorest districts in Texas. President commit any crime to be im- peached. As a result, Green received a flood of dona- type of partisan and identity politics which have failed tions from Democratic organizations nationally, while us and turned statecraft into a small-minded spectator doing virtually nothing for his district, which is one of sport, resulting in whole sections of our population the poorest districts in Texas. being stuck in place, going nowhere, or far worse.

The first section examines the location of the members of the Texas Senate and of the Texas House on the liberal-conservative dimension along which legislative politics takes place in Austin. In both chambers, every Republican is more conservative than every Democrat and every Democrat is more liberal than every Republican. There does, however, exist substantial ideological diversity within the respective Democratic and Republican delegations in each chamber. The second section explores the extent to which each senator and each representative was on the winning side of the non-lopsided final passage votes (FPVs) on which they voted.
