This week, EJ and Jimmy give an update on last week’s County Commissioner’s vote about government raises (0:50) and talk about two big economic developments for Fort Worth (1:31, 10:23). But, the big story for this week is around the 5 Texas House seats up for grabs this election in Tarrant County, and Governor Abbott’s push in the suburbs to protect “Law and Order” and defend those seats (16:29), given their importance to the shaping of Texas politics over the next decade. The two finish with highlighting their wins and losses for Fort Worth for the week (27:13), including the proposal for Fort Worth to become the new headquarters of Space Force.
