Legislative Agenda:  At the December 5 meeting in Surfside Beach, Legislative Committee Co-Chair John Lee reviewed the legislative agenda the Chapter developed for the Texas 2013 Session and the 2014 Federal one.  There is also a scorecard a scorecard in what was and was not accomplished.

John also prepared a list of items the Texas Chapter would like to see added to the 2015 Federal Legislative agenda.

Please take the time to review the pdfs to make certain the items are everything you and your area want to see legislatively to happen in 2015.  Either email me or John (Jlee@coastalsg.net) additions/deletions, and/or other recommendations.
