  • 87Th LEGISLATIVE SESSION and COVID RESTRICTIONS On
    87th LEGISLATIVE SESSION AND COVID RESTRICTIONS On January 12, 2021, lawmakers from across the state will convene the 87th Texas Legislative Session, meeting for the Regular Session over the following 140 days through May 31. This will be the first time that all 181 legislators will come together since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, and the virus is top-of-mind for everyone involved. While the Governor recently announced the re-opening of the Capitol building on January 4, we have minimal knowledge of the health and safety protocols the members, staff and Capitol visitors will have to follow when they enter the building next week. It will surely be a much different environment than previous sessions. We know the following requirements will be in place as of today, per a memo released by the State Preservation Board last week: • The Capitol building will only be open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday; it will be closed Saturday and Sunday for cleaning. • The public may only enter through the North Capitol entrance. • Covid testing will be encouraged and provided on the North Plaza at no expense. • A mask will be required to be worn inside the building at all times. • All deliveries to the Capitol, including food and beverage, must be left at the loading dock; no delivery personnel will be allowed beyond the loading dock or through the public entrance. • No public tours or groups or sponsored event space will be available. • The House and Senate will manage public access to their offices once convened and rules are adopted, and the public will need to check with the offices directly for specific guidelines.

  • DENNIS PAUL Total Pro-Life Score
    DENNIS PAUL Total Pro-Life TEXAS HOUSE DISTRICT 129 Score: (R-HOUSTON) Anti-Life Voted Pro-Life Voted Anti-Life 60% Pro-Life Key: EA = Excused Absence; UA = Unexcused Absence; PNV = Present, Not Voting; and Chair = Presiding at the Chair during the vote The Regular Session of the 86th Legislature was abysmal for the Pro-Life cause. Although Texas Right to Life, grassroots leaders, and voters prioritized only four Pro-Life bills, just one bill (Senate Bill 22, which should have been significantly strengthened) passed and was signed into law. Speaker of the House Dennis Bonnen, who announced his retirement under a cloud of corruption, and his leadership team actively thwarted Pro-Life issues from reaching the House floor for debate and passage—a shocking show of political malfeasance in light of the Pro-Life record achieved by Bonnen and the majority of House Republicans prior to 2019. Two priority Pro-Life bills passed the State Senate and then died in the committee process in the State House. Because of Speaker Bonnen's blatant betrayal of the Pro-Life movement, the only way to confirm whether individual representatives supported these is to score co-authorship of these two Pro-Life bills: HB 2434, companion of SB 1033, and HB 3158, companion of SB 2089. House members were repeatedly urged by constituents and by Texas Right to Life to co-author these bills and thereby signal their support. Consequently, members who failed to co-author these bills received a six-point penalty on their final score for each Pro-Life priority bill they failed to co-author.

    October 20, 2015 The Honorable Greg Abbott Office of the Governor P.O. Box 12428 Austin, Texas 78711-2428 Mr. Chris Traylor Executive Commissioner Texas Health and Human Services Commission 4900 N. Lamar Blvd. Austin, TX 78751-2316 Dear Governor Abbott and Commissioner Traylor: The Texas Conservative Coalition (TCC) applauds the decision by HHSC’s Inspector General to issue a Notice of Termination to the state’s Planned Parenthood affiliates, which sets in motion the process to end the organization’s enrollment in the Texas Medicaid program. Based on the evidence presented in the Inspector General’s (IG) notice, we agree that Planned Parenthood affiliates “are no longer capable of performing medical services in a professionally competent, safe, legal, and ethical manner.” Planned Parenthood’s Medicaid violations are serious and several: altering the timing and method of abortion, in violation of federal law, in order to procure fetal tissue; failing to abide by public health precautions that prevent the spread of infectious disease; and failing to abide by mandatory staff training requirements. These violations were partially demonstrated in video footage released earlier this year by the Center for Medical Progress. Having seen those recordings, some of which were filmed in Houston, we ardently feel that there must be consequences for revealed practices that not only shock the conscience, but are also against the law. The termination, thus, strikes us as necessary and appropriate. Additionally, we continue to be greatly disturbed by news of illegal billing and fraud performed by Planned Parenthood, of which the Inspector General has received new information.

  • The Honorable Giovanni Capriglione Texas House of Representatives P.O
    The Honorable Giovanni Capriglione Texas House of Representatives P.O. Box 2910 Austin, TX 78768 April 7, 2021 Dear Chairman Capriglione, The 87th session of the Texas Legislature is more than half-over. The business community in Texas appreciates how you and your colleagues are working long hours to help the Texas economy recover from the economic, social and health impacts of COVID-19 and winter storm Uri, balance our state budget without new taxes, reduce frivolous lawsuits, create a statewide broadband plan, and improve Texas schools and workforce. The Texas business community is bullish in regard to our state leadership and the success of this legislative session. There is significant concern among Texas businesses about efforts to regulate the data privacy practices of private enterprises, specifically HB 3741 and HB 4164 which have been filed by Representative Giovanni Capriglione. Similar efforts have been undertaken in California and Europe, creating enormous regulatory and financial challenges, a burden that has fallen on small and medium sized businesses. A study commissioned by the California Office of the Attorney General found that “[t]he total cost of initial compliance with the CCPA, which constitutes the vast majority of compliance efforts, is approximately $55 billion. This is equivalent to approximately 1.8% of California Gross State Product in 2018.” In Europe, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) caused many smaller web sites and companies to stop offering services or to shut down completely. On behalf of thousands of businesses from across Texas and the entire country, we respectfully request that state leaders refrain from efforts to mandate business data privacy policies over the next 54 days of session.

  • April 29, 2020 the Honorable Greg Abbott Governor of Texas P.O. Box
    April 29, 2020 The Honorable Greg Abbott Governor of Texas P.O. Box 12428 Austin, TX 78711 Delivered via Email Dear Governor Abbott: Long-term care facilities like nursing homes, state supported living centers, and group homes are now the epicenters of the COVID-19 pandemic. While media outlets have rightly focused on the deaths in nursing homes across the country, people with disabilities and older adults face increased risks in all institutional and congregate settings. Like nursing homes, there have been similar outbreaks and deaths in our state supported living centers, state hospitals, and group homes. Our state government can and must do more to protect our most vulnerable Texans. That is why we respectfully request the following critical measures to defend our elderly Texans, Texans with disabilities, and the Texans on the frontline serving these communities. • Immediate additional funding through an emergency Texas Medicaid rate increase for long-term and intermediate care facilities to help cover increased costs for direct-care staff wages and personal protective equipment (PPE); • Greater transparency in the reporting of COVID-19 deaths and cases in nursing home facilities, state supported living centers, state hospitals, and group homes; • Mandatory available COVID-19 testing for every employee and resident of a nursing home facility, state supported living centers, state hospitals, or group home in Texas. Thank you for your consideration of our request, and ensuring Texas protects our most vulnerable. Please do not hesitate
