HK: Patrick lays out priorities, some big and some bite size

While their legislative numbers dwindle, it’s clear the rural vote is critical to the future of the GOP

Lt. Governor Dan Patrick this week laid out some of his major priorities for the upcoming session.

This is likely to be Patrick’s last term in office and unless lightning strikes and Greg Abbott moves to a prestigious D.C. address, the Lite Guv is landlocked. Although never specifically stated, Patrick seemed aware that his time is limited and his twelve years as a statewide officeholder leaves a legacy, whether intended or not.

Patrick’s recurring frame was that he did not intend to leave the “building” without having addressed long term challenges like property taxes and the electricity grid.
