The House should be commended for the unanimous decision today to cut their office budgets across the board.
By passing the HR 3 (the Housekeeping Resolution) for the 82nd Legislature, legislators lowered their operational budget allocated for salaries and other office expenses for 10% for months when the Legislature is in session, and by 14% for all other months.
This should serve as an example to all state agencies looking to reduce their budget during this legislative session.
- US Rep. Henry Cuellar was indicted on bribery, money laundering, and foreign influence charges. - Thousands of illegal aliens have been flown into Texas airports. - US Rep. Pfluger preparing measure to strip Federal Education funding from convicted rioters.
Before the indictment was unsealed on Friday, Cuellar denied any wrongdoing and said he would run for re-election.
Other men around the state have reportedly taken similar actions.
More than 10,000 illegal aliens have been flown directly into Texas by the Biden administration.
