- Texas District and County Attorneys Association (TDCAA): See their legislative page and their list of key bills to watch.
- Texas Municipal Police Association(TMPA): See their Feb. 19 bill tracking report.
- Combined Law Enforcement Associations of Texas(CLEAT): See their supported bills, bills they oppose, and their "watch list."
- At the Texas Association of Counties (TAC), scroll down on their legislative page to see a list of bills they're watching on various topics of interest to counties, including "Sheriffs," "Constables," "District Clerks," and "Attorneys" (Incidentally, my grandfather, long-time Dallam County Judge W.D. Henson, was one of the founders and the first president of TAC, way back when I was a young pup.)
- The Texas Police Chiefs Association restricts viewership of its legislative agenda to a members only section of their website.
- The Sheriff's Association of Texas has no reference to legislation at all on the public portion of its website; neither does the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association.
- Here's the legislative agenda for the Texas Association Against Sexual Assault (TAASA).
- ACLU of Texas: Scroll down on their Legislative page to see ACLUTX's "bill book" of items they're focused on this session.
All of these proposals are mind boggling & shear madness. Glad I retired.
ReplyDeleteDoes TCDLA have anything going on?
ReplyDeleteGrits....The Texas Probation Association is monitoring legislation affecting Community Corrections and Juvenile Justice
ReplyDeleteI do not know how to contact Scott Henson, but would like for him to look into HB 1893/SB 1164. Both these bills are to allow carrying concealed handguns on college campuses. This is scary and should not be allowed.
ReplyDeletePlease read them and ask your Senator and Representative to please block these bills.
