The '''[[Texas]] Legislature''' is a bi-cameral legislature consisting of a 150-seat House of Representatives and a 31-seat Senate.  Many of the legislators are in for decades, and [[dark money]] [[globalist]]s tend to control the agenda there as there are no limits on campaign contributions.  Their top priority in several legislative sessions has been to enact the "horrible idea" (Justice [[Antonin Scalia]]'s observation) of the [[Convention of States]].

The Legislature meets in January of odd-numbered years only for a total of 140 days, and must adjourn no later than May 31 of that year, unless called into special session.  Uniquely, the Legislature cannot call itself into such a session (unlike most other states), only the Governor can do so (as many times as desired) for a 30-day session, and the only legislation that can be considered in a special session is that which the Governor announces in his proclamation calling for one (or in an amended proclamation); the Legislature cannot consider any on its own.
