Weekly Report From Austin
Dear Friends;
The Governor's address to the
60th Legislature last week may-
change the complexion of the
remainder of this session. His
proposal to budget the state's
spending for only one year in
a novel approach to one of our
most difficult legislative prob-
lems. If this plan is accepted,
consideration of additional taxes
would be postponed until next
year, at which time a special
session would be called to con-
sider appropriations and review
