Edited to add: actually just heard that most bills not on the governor's and Dan Patrick's short list are going to die in calendars. Again, this is just what I heard.
This is correct and I'm furious! It was prefiled in December, but didn't get a hearing in committee until 4/24/17. Then it didn't get to the Senate floor until 5/9/17. The Bill didn't change current law; it prevented dishonest people from abusing the current law to the extreme prejudice of law-abiding LTCs. There's absolutely no excuse for letting this Bill die.

Ok, so... NOW can we light the torches and sharpen our pitchforks???

Sure there is......it's called a hidden agenda. What people say doesn't always match what they believe.
