People on the Move

Staffer moves galore, lobby moves, a new lobby firm, and some public education advocates step up to the plate

Congrats, you survived another week and we’re moving into May, when these kinda boring but high-stakes runoffs will finally be concluded. Let the countdown begin.

Meantime, voters in Virginia this week approved a new congressional map giving a big boost to Democrats. So now the Republican Party is running behind in the redistricting arms race that they started last summer at the Texas Capitol. We'll break it all down for you on Quorum Report Radio tonight, including our exclusive reporting on how some Texas Republicans in Congress were hoping state Democrats would block President Trump's "dumb" idea in the first place. The links to follow the show on Apple Podcasts and Spotify are on the QR homepage. You can find Quorum Report Radio on all other podcast apps as well.

But now, it’s time for POTM. People on the Move is the best and most efficient way to let the Texas Capitol community know what’s happening in your career. If you’ve got that kind of news to share – and it doesn’t have to be your own, by the way – send it anytime to ksbraddock@gmail.com and please use “POTM” in the subject line so I can keep it all straight. Thanks so much.

Here’s the latest edition.
