34. Maybe this is a good sign, do you think? I imagine that the legislature
must have been hearing from constituents about the issue and are responding to the complaints. If that is why they have taken these steps, then it would mean they are responding to pressure from the public.

I was surprised that it was Texas, not NY or NJ who actually got this done as NY, NJ and NH eg, have been working on similar lege. but seem to be dragging their feet on it. Maybe now that Texas has led the way, it will inspire others to do the same.

It might be worthwhile starting separate movements to pressure them on the other issues you mention. I know what you mean though, I did not expect Texas to lead the way on something like this. Hope it gets better for you there though ...
