The Texas Legislature is hitting key legislative deadlines with sixteen days remaining before they adjourn Sine Die. The action in the Capitol is hot on many issues important to Texans of faith, but maybe none more so than the debate over public school finance. Here to talk with us about all of it this week is Texas Impact's Executive Director, Bee Moorhead.
As of Wednesday, May 14, the final gavel of the 2025 Alabama Legislative Session has fallen! ACA lobbyists Erin Beasley and Kayla Greer gathered in the Cattle Connect studio after the motion to adjourn “Sine Die,” and the duo debriefed some of the milestone moments from the past 105 days in the State House.
In Washington, Congress is hard at work trying to pass a “one big, beautiful bill” that brings together key parts of the Trump administration's agenda—covering energy, taxes, immigration, and more. There's hope it could deliver real benefits for Americans, including tax cuts, health care reform, and regulatory relief. Getting it across the finish line by the desired July Fourth deadline will be no easy task.Back home in Texas, we're seeing policies branded as “conservative” but are not. A massive, California-style spending bill just passed. What's conservative about that? During this session, Texans were promised real property tax relief and universal school choice, but lawmakers haven't delivered. There's still work to be done to keep Texas a bold beacon of pro-growth policy and prosperity, with Sine Die on June 2.Watch now and subscribe for weekly updates on how we can let people prosper.Visit: VanceGinn.comSubscribe: VanceGinn.Substack.comListen on: YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify

We are joined by Senator Sam Hunt to review the legislative session just past and talk about what Olympia got from Olympia. We also delve into his political history and the history of our community as we look back on his year's of service.
We're two days away from Sine Die, the last day of the 2024 Georgia legislative session.It's a chaotic race to the finish where lawmakers are reviewing and voting-on hundreds of bills. Host Lisa Rayam is out this week. But Democratic Strategist Tharon Johnson and Republican Strategist Brian Robinson take us through a few bills they're focused on, and some insight they're getting from walking the halls of the Gold Dome. That includes one bill that would compensate exonerated people who lost years of their lives in prison.Plus, this week's episode comes on the heels of Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens' state of the city address. Dickens touched on the future of building light rail and connecting MARTA to the Atlanta BeltLine, building more housing and building the city's public safety training center, which police say is on-track to open by the end of this year.
