ALERT for TX: IRCOT ACTION ALERT FOR TUESDAY, MAY 31, 2011...Texas Constitution requires the Legislature to pass a budget, and a Special Session has been called by the Governor to start today. Lt. Gov. Dewhurst already announced that the 2/3 rule will not be in effect. This would mean that only a simple majority, or 16 votes, would be required to pass a bill in the Senate. This is the opportunity that we need to pass important immigration related bills. However, the very latest word is that only 2 bills, SB 1811 and SB 23 have been added to the special session charge!
A request from IRCOT was sent to the Governor asking for the addition of 3 key immigration bills to the special session charge! Now, we need your calls and faxes to Gov. Perry! Ask him to add: HB 12 -- Anti-Sanctuary City AND HB 1275 E-Verify HB 608 -- Cost of benefits to illegal aliens
