Texas Legislature starts another special session — its third — to deal with road funding
Don't pack.
Gov. Rick Perry plans to call an immediate third special session to tackle roads funding if lawmakers - as appears likely - fail to pass a transportation bill today, a confidant of the governor said.
Morning debate in the governor's office weighed factors of the impasse, whether time off would help reach an agreement or whether the situation was urgent enough to warrant yet another back, to back, to back session.
The urgency argument won, the source said.
