Rep. Dustin Burrows (R-Lubbock), the chairman of the House Calendars Committee, joined The Texan senior reporter Brad Johnson to discuss the status of major policies as the legislature enters its final month of the regular legislative session.

“I try not to compare sessions. They all have a very different feel and flow,” said Burrows. “But we’re getting into the good part of session where a lot of the conservative victories are about to be accomplished.”

Burrows discussed two of his major bills: a broad local government preemption bill and legislation to require school districts to maintain armed security at each of their campuses.

In a portion of the interview exclusively available at The Texan, Burrows also discussed the likelihood of school choice legislation passing the Texas House during this legislative session and the current battle between the House and Senate over appraisal caps.
