Completely agree. The Texas Legislature only meets every 2 years for a limited period of time to put restraints on runaway legislation and the "permanent deep state".
(Edit - meant to add) -- The current session expires on 5/31. I do not believe that legislation pertaining to this EO can make it to the floors of the House and Senate in time for passage.
Historically Governors will call an emergency session immediately after the scheduled session closes with a specific agenda outlined for consideration. It is my hope that this EO and GA-35 (no vaccine passports) can be codified into law during an Emergency Session.
