Three special sessions is enough. At least that's how Governor Greg Abbott may be feeling on this Wednesday. Since the third special session ended this week, many in the media and even elected officials have been wondering if Texas Governor Greg Abbott would call a fourth special session.

The idea behind a fourth special session started to get a little momentum for a couple of hours on Wednesday when Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick took to Twitter to call for a fourth special session. The Lieutenant Governor tweeted:

TX Senate just finished a strong conservative session. But more needs to be done. Senate added felony penalties for illegal voting, but the House cut to a misdemeanor. House needs to pass an election forensic audit bill. I support            

@GovAbbott calling us back to pass both. #txlege
While the Lt. Governor placed blame on the House for reducing the penalties for illegal voting, it's important to remember that both the Senate and House voted on the same legislation and the Governor signed it, with the lowered penalties included.
Besides the issue of penalties for illegal voting and an audit bill, other potential issues that lawmakers could address include gender modification bills, and whether to ban businesses from requiring employees to get vaccinated.
But none of those will come up soon because a spokesperson for the Governor said now is not the time for a special session because of the work already accomplished by the Texas House and Senate.

This doesn't mean there won't be another special session, but it looks as though the Governor is ready to head into campaign season and I imagine that there are other lawmakers who are ready for that as well.

Say what now? Somewhat small?

That's right. These are the towns that seem massive when compared to teensy weensie two-stoplight towns like Pringle (30) or Kerrick (25), but they're definitely not on the same level as cities like White Deer or Panhandle....much less Amarillo.
