Political Season in High Gear

Thank You For Your Input and Involvement!
With tremendous uncertainty regarding the ultimate district lines, “who’s running where” and even the dates for the primary elections, we are well into our biannual process of determining which candidates to support. While we are waiting for some finality in the ever-dynamic redistricting saga for a number of open seats in the Texas House of Representatives and Congress, there are many districts and candidate slates that appear to be set regardless of how the process settles out.
And speaking of settling out, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an opinion on Friday in the State’s redistricting case. Because the Court remanded the case for further proceedings consistent with its opinion, it is unclear how that decision will affect the elections. Stay tuned. There are still a few balls in the air.
Some of you have already received communications from us seeking input on primary contests in your area. We appreciate your input and involvement, and want to make sure we are following the will of our members in each district. With over 30 open seats in various bodies, the chances are good you will have an opportunity to provide input in this process. Additionally, if you have any observations or opinions you wish to share, please call or e-mail us at any time.
Finally, sincere thanks to all of you who have faithfully supported the IBAT PACs over the years. You continue to make a difference for our industry!
