Abbott: Fall Special Session Needed To Allocate Federal Pandemic Funds

Governor Greg Abbott says state legislators can expect a special session this fall to allocate nearly $16 billion federal dollars in pandemic recovery money. Abbott emailed House members about the plan on Thursday evening. He was already planning to call a special session later this year for the Legislature to redraw Texas congressional districts. That task comes up every ten-years, after the national census is taken.
