State of Texas - April 20, 2025
A plan to let Texas parents use tax dollars to help pay for private education moves closer to becoming law. After approval in the Texas House, legislation to create an education savings account program could soon head to Governor Abbott's desk. Our Capitol Bureau team of Dylan McKim and Adam Schwager look back at the heated debate and to what comes next in the fight over ESA's in Texas.
A Texas House committee calls for sanctions on an insurance company accused of hiring investigators to get information on customers. We look at the latest fallout from a heated hearing of the DOGE committee at the Capitol.
A Texas State Senator says he's ready to run for Texas Attorney General. Mayes Middleton announced plans to put $10-million of his own money into his campaign, but he's not the only Republican in the race. We sit down with John Bash, a former U.S. Attorney who launched his campaign earlier this month. Bash lays out his background, and his message to Texas voters.
The Trump Administration kills a $60-million grant for high speed rail in Texas. But supporters say the project is still alive. Grace Reader reports on the plan, and why some people backing the project believe losing the grant could actually help keep the project on track.
State of Texas is a statewide, in-depth program focused solely on Texas politics. Produced at KXAN in Austin and airing in 14 markets across the state, the show gives viewers greater perspective on the Texas Legislature, state policy and elections.
