Lege gets to work in fourth special session

Welcome Mesa View residents and staff, family, visitors, and members of American Legion Post 56. Thank you for being here.

American flags and flagpoles are so common that we often take them for granted. They are as common as, well, apple pie and football. They are so common that a recent visitor to the United States complained that American flags cluttered up the scenery and observed that in her country seeing a national flag was a rarity.

(AUSTIN) — Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar announced today he will send cities, counties, transit systems and special purpose districts $1.2 billion in local sales tax allocations for November, 1.9 percent more than in November 2022. These allocations are based on sales made in September by businesses that report tax monthly and on sales made in July, August and September by quarterly filers.

AUSTIN--Today, Nov. 7, is Election Day in Texas. Statewide, voters will weigh in on 14 proposed amendments to the state constitution.

Members of the American Legion Zybach-Owens Post 56 met at the Mesa View Complex on Saturday afternoon, October 28, for a project to install a refurbished flagpole.

Warren Rivers, Jason Bradford, and Alfred Godino used a North Plains Electric Coop bucket truck to remove the pole from its location at the former nursing home site. Rivers repaired and repainted it.

Special session likely to end with no voucher deal

As the clock ran down on the Legislature’s third special session, Texas House and Senate leaders exchanged barbs over Gov. Greg Abbott’s school choice bill and border security proposals, the Austin American-Statesman reported.

On Tuesday, November 7, Texas voters will determine the fate of 14 proposed amendments to the state constitution. The subjects of the propositions range from local to regional to statewide issues, covering parks, internet, teachers pensions, property taxes and other matters of critical importance to Texans.
