“Over half of registered lobbyists in Texas are hired to defend the power of local governments, paid for with taxpayer money. It makes perfect sense then, that State Sen. Konni Burton’s (R-Colleyville) effort (SB 1862) to reform the government lobbying structure was met with harsh opposition by—you guessed it—local governments.”

Re: Priorities for 2019 legislative session

Let’s think even bigger and focus on removing the ability of cities, counties and all other public entities to hire lobbyists. Texas is one of the few states that allows this. I doubt there isn’t one instance where they aren’t lobbying against our 2nd amendment rights.
