In light of the unconscionable decision by Lt. Gov. Patrick the night of May 28, 2017 to give the Senate Floor to Sen. Menéndez (who decided to filibuster the Annexation Reform Bill, SB715) rather than to Sen. Campbell who could have moved to pass it....our fight continues.
Rep. Larson sent his newsletter encouraging all of us to do the following:
Contact Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick immediately and hold him accountable for allowing the opposition to kill the Annexation Reform Bill.
Contact information for Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick:
- Phone Nr (Comment Line): (512) 463-5342
- Phone Nr (Office Line): (512) 463-0001
- Email: LTGConstituent.Affairs@ltgov.texas.gov
Contact Gov. Abbott's office with requests for him to add Annexation Reform to the call for a Special Session.
- You can go the HAA website to easily send him a letter: http://www.homeownersagainstannexation.com/p/get-in-touch_24.html#/19
Here are some talking points that could get the Governor's attention:
- Please protect our democratic values
- We believe in small government
- Protect the citizen's rights to determine who governs them
- How our veterans serve(d) to protect the very freedoms now being denied us, especially on Memorial Day weekend!
- Commend the Governor for his dedication to citizens rights and his defense of the Constitution.
- Explain to the Governor the urgency for all citizens who will be forcibly annexed before the 2019 Legislature convenes.
The sooner we all can contact the Governor, the better our chance for getting the Special Session that we need for that last chance to get our Annexation Reform bill passed.
Thanks for everyone's persistence in keeping up whatever it takes to try to keep us unincorporated!
Respectfully,
Mike Stewart
HAA President
