White unsure
about betting,
banking bills
AUSTIN (AP) — Gov. 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.
