My name is Georgia Keysor. I have taken the time to address this committee because I believe redistricting is an integral function of our democracy. When redistricting is used by incumbents to artificially preserve their majority, our democracy suffers. 1 The current system of closed door back room deal‐cutting partisan gerrymandering has resulted in politicians supporting policies that the vast majority of their constituents oppose, or opposing policies that the vast majority their constituents support. Case in Point? The wildly popular COVID Relief Bill. We know something like 90% of Americans support expanded background checks for gun purchases. We also know that because the gerrymandered majority GOP is owned lock, stock and barrel by the Russian funded NRA, the will of the people goes ignored. The majority of Americans support the LGBT community, a women’s right to control her own body and her destiny and the decriminalization of cannabis.

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.

  • Legislative Update
    January 29, 2021| Regular Session, Issue 3 | 87th Regular Session Every Friday, this newsletter will keep you up to speed on some of the legislation important to Texas Farm Bureau members that Austin staff are following. Please do not hesitate to contact the appropriate staff with any questions. Legislative Update Water SB 152 and companion HB 668: Relating to the regulation of groundwater conservation districts. Perry, Charles (R) and Harris, Cody (R) Summary: SB 152 and HB 668 empower landowners to protect their constitutional rights from illegal groundwater regulations. Current law does not require enough transparency or provide landowners with reasonable options to change or challenge bad regulations. If property owners are faced with an illegal regulation, they only have one option— to challenge the district’s action in court and take on the risk having to pay the district’s attorney fees. The language in SB 152 and HB 668 is currently being negotiated. The following description of the bills is based upon the current state of negotiations: 1. Requiring notice of a permit or permit amendment that will prevent a neighboring landowner from being able to drill a well on their property or drill at a particular location on their property. The local district will determine how that notice will be provided. This notice will give landowners who will be DIRECTLY affected by the district’s actions an opportunity to decide if they should participate in the permitting process to protect their right to drill a well. In some districts, spacing rules allow a neighbor to drill a well 50 feet from a property line.

The time to get bills out of House Committees, through the Calendars Committee and to the House floor for a vote is running short. After a House floor vote, the bills must go still through the Senate process. In order for House bills to be successful, they need to be voted out of their respective Committees ideally the first week of April. Senate bills also need to make their way out of committees to be voted on and sent over to the House. We need all hands on deck to let our voices be heard.

  • Sen. Kelly Hancock Conducts First Hearing As Business & Commerce
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: CAITY POST January 26, 2016 (972) 762-8046 Sen. Kelly Hancock Conducts First Hearing as Business & Commerce Chair Committee meets to address elder financial abuse and ad valorem property taxes AUSTIN - The Senate Committee on Business and Commerce today held its first interim hearing of the year at the State Capitol in Austin. Senator Kelly Hancock (R-North Richland Hills) was appointed Chairman of the nine-member committee earlier this month. "For years now, Texas' strong business climate has allowed us to lead the nation in job creation," said Sen. Hancock. "My intention for this committee is to continue that trajectory by staying out of the way of the innovators, entrepreneurs, and hard-working taxpayers who drive our economy." In today's hearing, the committee heard testimony on two topics: protecting senior adults from financial exploitation and reviewing the collection process for delinquent ad valorem property taxes. The committee will hold multiple hearings throughout the year to address the seven interim charges set by Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick. "Sen. Hancock has served as a strong conservative leader in both the Texas House of Representatives and the Texas Senate," said Lt. Gov. Patrick upon Sen. Hancock's appointment as Chairman. "I am certain he will continue his track record of reducing regulatory burdens on Texas businesses while ensuring businesses continue to grow and create jobs." To view a complete list of interim charges for the Senate Committee on Business and Commerce, visit www.senate.state.tx.us/businessandcommerce/interim_charges.pdf. ### Senator Hancock represents Senate District 9, which includes portions of Dallas and Tarrant Counties.

  • Senator Kolkhorst Pushes Passage of Tax Relief Package Texas Senate Passes Senate Bill 2 and Senate Bill 17
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Matthew Russell 512-463-0118 March 21, 2017 Senator Kolkhorst Pushes Passage of Tax Relief Package Texas Senate Passes Senate Bill 2 and Senate Bill 17 AUSTIN - The Texas Senate passed major tax relief legislation to reduce the burden on homeowners and businesses. In passing Senate Bill 2, authored by Senator Paul Bettencourt (R-Houston) and co-authored by Senator Lois Kolkhorst (R-Brenham), the trigger rate for an election was lowered to five percent from the current eight percent when a local government entity attempts to increase its tax collections. The bill requires an automatic election if the five percent rollback rate is exceeded, and also creates a Property Tax Advisory Board at the office of the Texas Comptroller. "Everyone agrees that property taxes are too high. That's why I was proud to co-author and pass Senate Bill 2, the Texas Property Tax Reform and Relief Act. This common sense proposal will provide appraisal reform and give voters the final approval over property tax hikes," said Kolkhorst. "Texas still has work to do on addressing our reliance on property taxes for public schools. In the meantime, Senate Bill 2 provides the purest form of local control possible because it gives taxpayers the final say and keeps power where it belongs, with the people." The Senate also took action to pass Senate Bill 17, authored by Senator Jane Nelson (R-Flower Mound) and co- authored by Senator Kolkhorst. The proposal provides tax relief for businesses and encourages economic growth by reducing the franchise tax every biennium, so long as the Comptroller certifies that the state will experience revenue growth of at least five percent.

  • 512-463-0118 Senator Lois W. Kolkhorst Passes First Bills As
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 7, 2015 Contact: 512-463-0118 Senator Lois W. Kolkhorst Passes First Bills as Senator Today the Texas Senate passed two bills authored by State Senator Lois Kolkhorst, the first legislation for her to pass as a member of the Texas Senate. In passing Senate Bill 759, Kolkhorst repeals two state taxes. The first tax abolished is currently applied to the rental of premises for conducting bingo, a popular pastime in much of her Senate District 18. The second tax repealed in her bill is regarding liquefied gas (LPG) used to power motor vehicles. By eliminating both of these taxes, Kolkhorst said that the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts will now be able to focus resources on more productive areas of the state's tax laws. "There's a reason the first bill I've passed as a Texas Senator is to cut taxes. Texas is a national leader because we are constantly looking for ways to lower our tax burden. That's why I've worked with our Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar to craft a bill to eliminate taxes that were not worth the time and effort to collect." In passing Senate Bill 791, also known as "Maddie's Law," Kolkhorst calls for increased public education and outreach programs to inform women of the risks, symptoms, and treatment of Congenital Cytomegalovirus (CMV). The bill calls for a screening for CMV if an infant does not pass their initial newborn hearing screening. Kolkhorst named the bill "Maddie's Law" based on Maddie Armstrong, who was a Ft.
