People on the Move

Power players, new lobby shops aplenty, and more

Republicans spent months warning of transitions but they didn’t mean transition teams.

The incoming Governor, Lt. Gov, and presumptive Speaker have all now unveiled bipartisan teams in full acknowledgement of two key realities: Though it did turn blue, this state did not suddenly become a bastion of liberalism and Republicans still have control of one pillar of state government in the Texas Senate.

After the tidal wave or tsunami – whatever you want to call it – election, the process of building a new government is well underway and new ventures aimed at lobbying are springing up all over the place. From those who were at the top on the GOP side to some who’ve worked in the trenches on the Democratic side, there’s no shortage of activity. Thanks for all your POTM submissions this week. You can let the entire Texas Capitol community know about your new gig or business by sending it to ksbraddock@gmail.com anytime.

We’re taking a post-election break this week and will return in your podcast feeds next Friday Nov 20.
