Austin council greenlit new natural gas plants Thursday. And yes — despite some confusion, the item DID pass. Council approved it in executive session, then publicly announced the outcome afterward. Details @statesman statesman.com/news/local/art…

Following the deaths of 27 campers + counselors last July, the Texas Board of Nursing has temporarily suspended the nursing license of Mary Liz Eastland, Camp Mystic's chief health officer. An attorney for the camp called the board's decision "premature punishment." #txlege

In 2020, Austin voters greenlit a 20-mile light rail system — raising their own city property tax bills by 20% to fund it. Costs ballooned, and the project's scope shrank. For now, it will reach less than half the distance — at about 3x the original per-mile cost.

Stopped by @DairyQueen in Sealy, Texas, otherwise known as the “Texas stop sign,” to sample some of their delicious fare. I highly recommend the Blizzard. (I had that after I ate this child-size cone)

Austin high school student Luis Fernando Cabrera, who was detained by ICE earlier this month, is out. Here’s a video his family shared. This comes days before his graduation. Community rallied around him and his habeas was successful.

Gov. Abbott weighs in on the Austin shooting spree: “The DA & Court must do their job and keep these criminals behind bars.”
Greg Abbott@GregAbbott_TX

These kids are serial criminals with a callous disregard for life. If they are ever released from jail they will surely harm again. Austin PD, Travis Co. Sheriff Office & Manor PD did their job. Texas Dept. of Public Safety aided them. The DA & Court must do their job and keep these criminals behind bars. katv.com/news/nation-wo…
