“This session, we will ensure Texas remains the leader of this nation as an unflinching force in this world,” Gov. Greg Abbott, seen on the opening day of the 2023 Legislature, said during the speech in San Marcos. “Together, we will build a Texas for the next generation — the Texas of tomorrow.

Abbott said in one that Texans are rightfully “furious about the lawlessness caused by Joe Biden’s open border policies.” Emergency items are proposals that allow lawmakers to bypass a ban on passing legislation before the 60th day of a session — which would be March 10. Thursday is the 37th day of the session.

When it came to guns, Abbott focused on getting tougher on crimes involving guns, calling for a 10-year mandatory minimum jail sentence “for criminals who illegally possess guns.” That is consistent with a top priority of the lieutenant governor this session.
