SB 723 Update 3

Meghan Stabler is not only still in Austin watching the Texas Senate and what they're doing on SB 723, the cavalry's coming from Houston.    Nope, the TransGriot's not needed yet at the capitol but I'm standing by.

Nikki Araguz is in Austin along with Meghan hoping to talk to some of the Democratic senators in person and implore them to keep up the united front against the unjust bill.   

The bill is still on the intent calendar, and the action on the senate floor will resume at 11 AM CDT.   just a reminder Meghan will be tweeting the proceedings and you can follow along with the TXSB723 hashtag on Twitter.

Wavering legislator that needs focus today is Sen. Carlos Uresti.   His district covers West Texas to El Paso County and the cities of Eagle Pass, Del Rio, and southern Bexar County   Please send you e-mails to him and thanks to the other Dem senators for their continued support in killing SB 723
