Mark White said Thursday he hasn’t made up his mind whether to veto legis lation that would let voters decide if the state should allow pari-mutuel wagering on horse and dog races. Although House Speaker Pro Tern Hugo Berlanga, D-Corpus Christi, said White had indicated Wednesday he would veto it, the governor said he still is studying the issue. “I have not made a decisiqn on that,” White said. “I am waiting to see the bill and its details, and also to assess the impact of that bill.” White’s veto comments to Ber langa on Wednesday sparked angry complaints from many legislators. Rep. Lloyd Criss, D-LaMarque, said, “To veto this bill would be a very serious mistake. He’s setting himself and the Democratic Party on a collision course with the voters in November.” Rep. Cliff Johnson, D-Palestine, said the bill included the three things White had insisted on — a statewide referendum, an option for counties and tough anti-organized crime measures. “I’m an East Texas Democrat and, for me, that was a very hard vote,” Johnson said. “If it had everything he wanted, he said he wouldn’t stand in the way of people voting on it. Well, he could have told us that he would veto it before we spent two days debating it on the House floor.” White also said Thursday that he’s studying two other bills, but gave them a good prognosis. One measure would legalize for the first time in state history the pur chase of Texas banks and bank hold ing companies by out-of-state banks. The second would set guidelines for branch banking if voters in Novem ber adopt a constitutional amend ment to permit branch banks. Legislative session satisfies leaders despite stalemate AUSTIN (AP) — The budget sta lemate remained when the special session ended Thursday, but state leaders said they were pleased with progress made during the 30 days that produced another special ses sion. “We passed some good laws,” Speaker Gib Lewis said. “Everyone benefits. We can take a great deal of pride in what we’ve accomplished thus far. I can see a big spotlight at the end of the tunnel.” Gov. Mark White, who Thursday called another special session to be gin Monday, said, “If he sees it, I’m sure that I can see it, too.” Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby seemed a trifle less optimistic, but has “high hopes” for the next session. , The first special session was called to battle the projected $3.5 billion deficit facing the state. White and Hobby pushed packages of spending cuts and tax hikes. But Lewis ad amantly blocked action on any tax bill. Lawmakers did approve bills that add up to about $560 million in sa vings for the state, including two measures that won final approval Thursday. The House and Senate approved a compromise version of a bill that would move state pay day from the last day of the month to the first day of the next bionth. That would give the state one fewer $200 million payroll to meet in the current fiscal year. Also approved in both chambers Thursday was a bill that increases court filing fees. Major legislation approved in cluded a proposed constitutional amendment that would legalize branch banking, a bill allowing out- of-state banks to buy Texas banks and measures reducing teacher pa perwork and increasing their disci plinary powers. And in a historic vote, the Legis lature decided to let Texans vote on whether to legalize pari-mutuel bet ting. But White has told lawmakers he probably would veto that bill. Progress was sorely lacking on the major spending cut bill. House and Senate conferees virtually gave up this week when it became apparent White would call another session. The House had approved about $740 million in cuts. The Senate, where a tax hike remains popular, had found only $418 million to cut. Lewis said there could be a place and time to consider a tax hike. But it would not be considered until all possible cuts and “cash manage ment” measures are approved, he said. Lewis predicted a temporary tax hike — such as the sales tax proposal backed by White — could win 100 votes in the 150-member House when members are convinced that every possible cut has been made and more money still is needed.
