Thanks for providing the update Bill. To add to the information: https://wrm.capitol.texas.gov/home will help you find your representative. I found mine and unfortunately, my rep for San Antonio, Steve Allison, voted Nay. I'll be writing him. I hope all Texas Cavers (formations) will invest the little time it tasks to protect our environment.
