The TxDOT sunset measure stripped the local-option gas tax, but ... State Senator Corona will now filibuster HB300!

Sen. John Carona, R-Dallas, ran into opposition for his local-option gas tax and it got stripped in conference committee from House Bill 300, the Texas Department of Transportation Sunset measure.

In response, Carona has announced he'll filibuster the bill and sink it altogether.
