PAAT Members:

Thanks to those of you who were able to attend last week's roundtable discussion with Jon Heining, Special Counsel for the Texas Legislative Council.

We have posted Jon's powerpoint presentation as well as additional handouts on our website which you can access by clicking here. Note slide 20 which shows the number of bill draft requests by month:

We are setting up several additional roundtables in the coming months and will send out "save the date" announcements once we have finalized the details.

If you have any questions about the TLC discussion or need assistance with any ethics related questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

2008 PAAT

INSTITUTE

This year's PAAT Institute will take place in November, rather than in September as it has been in the past.  We will send out the specific save the date information shortly.

This change will enable us to have a session on the election results as well as any TEC legislative recommendations and other session related activities.  If you have topics of interest please let us know.
