matters on which he expects to
communicate directly” with legis
lators or other officials.
But many wrote on their reg
istration forms such ambiguous
phrases as “constitutional revi
sion” or “revising the constitution
in the interest of the people.”
It sometimes is impossible to
tell even if a lobbyist is working
the convention or has merely reg
istered to cover himself in case
he decides to call on a legislator-
delegate or member of the exec
utive branch.
Daniel asked A tty. Gen. John
Hill for a legal opinion on wheth
er such uninformative statements
violated the “specific description”
requirement.
Lobby pressure in the conven
tion has been minimal so far,
largely because of uncertainty as
to how far the lobby control law
and the penal code will let them
go in entertaining the legislator-
delegates.
But that does not mean there
is a shortage of people to speak
out for special interest viewpoints
or for the public good as visual
ized by certain organizations.
Stakes are particularly high for
two groups—organized labor and
those who profit from highway
construction.
Individual unions and the Tex
as AFL-CIO have 27 registered
lobbyists, most of them officials
who are doing double duty.
Two organizations who oppose
the use of gasoline and other mo
tor fuel taxes for anything be
sides highway construction have
a total of 11 lobbyists — the Tex
as Motor Transportation Associa
tion with eight and the Texas
Good Roads Association with
three.
Motor transport lobbyists,
headed by veterans Terry Town
send and Jack Bryan, said their
goal was “retention of the high
way trust fund and retention of
