While I agree with the Texas Legislature in need of Change by Cory Gurganus and believe it would be greatly beneficial to have a full time legislation, I do not think that the legislate would be so inclined to amend the Constitution in a manner that would only require them to work more, even if we did raise their pay. I mean, we all know that their compensation is not much, but we also know that there has to be another reason why they do it.
I too, would like to believe that by making Texas a full-time legislature it would not only bring in a better level of representation, it would also greatly improve our financials. However, I just can’t seem to find that same level of confidence.
How many times were they warned about the budget and precautionary measures they should be taking? Yet, this did not stop them from over spending and we can’t be mad at anyone but ourselves when it comes to our current representation; we appointed/voted them there.
