As governor, [Perry] agrees to call out the Texas Rangers to help protect these witnesses to a murder. |
As the governor has said, once he has a bill or bills on his desk that substantially reduce property taxes and reform the business franchise tax, he'll open the call to other issues. |
Charter schools, as a matter of law, have always been exempted from the accountability system, and the 65 percent requirement is part of the financial accountability system. We don't know that there is an administrative way around it, but certainly if there is a way that Gov. Perry administratively can achieve that, he certainly will do that. |
Governor Perry has been the most open book in terms of a long-standing history of releasing his complete tax returns for years so the public is able to totally examine his sources of income. |
He certainly is aware of who we hired. But decisions are made more at the staff level. |
He established the council, as he said at the time, to get recommendations to enhance public confidence in the criminal justice system. He's aware that (eyewitness identification) is one of the issues they're looking at. |
He has decided, at least for the time being, that taking a more focused approach is better. |
He is extremely supportive of it. |
Her work is so shoddy and incompetent, she didn't even know how to track payments. |
His assumption that anyone with money could use the room is incorrect. It was made available because they (lawmakers) were in session. He wanted to meet with a number of legislators who, frankly, were probably on the floor at that time. |
I don't know of a single teacher in Texas who wouldn't welcome the possibility of getting a raise of $10,000, and if the head of a labor union wants to demean and diminish the hard work and the value of teachers, then he or she should be ashamed. |
I don't think the e-mails quite capture the intensity of those moments. In addition to e-mail traffic, there were phone calls going on. It was kind of multitasking to the nth degree. Tensions were high. Everybody knew what was at stake. |
I don't understand their objection to consumers hearing about the plan other than the fact that they don't want the Legislature to succeed. |
I have found sufficient reason to indefinitely stop all payments to the firm. |
I have real concern developing about lawlessness breaking out in Texas as a result of our generosity. We need to make certain we do not exceed our ability to provide necessities for those we are agreeing to take. What's the plan for those who see the Astrodome as their rightful home for the next 90 days? What's the plan for handling increase in prison/jail population? |
