With session over, lawmakers eye 2013 seats

          On News 8 Austin, a commentary was made titled “With session over, lawmakers eye 2013 seats”. Now that the eighty second legislative session is over, lawmakers are paying attention to the future. State Senator Kirk Watson, D-Austin, the leader of Senate Democrats, says that the session was an accomplishment for the democrats. He says that "The reason I say it was successful is I think first and foremost, what we were able to do is assure greater transparency and honesty in what was happening,”. State Republican Jason Isaac said that he is also proud of the things succeeded, especially with the issue of not raising taxes. He says that I think [Latinos] are going to show up and support fiscally conservative candidates that are not going to raise taxes on small businesses in general,".  I think this is an article worth paying attention to, because we should be well informed with who will be taking the 2013 seats, and as citizens, this should be as important as it is for the lawmakers, the new leaders.
