Burnt Orange Report - Final Judgment: Leadership Needs to Step Back

Burnt Orange Report - Final Judgment: Leadership Needs to Step Back: "Sen. Whitmire successfully filibustered HB2, and the 1st called special session ended without a single bill to help fund Texas' public schools or to lower property taxes for Texas homeowners. Word around the capitol is that neither the House or the Senate had the votes to pass HB2 anyway, which tells the leadership something important:
