AUSTIN NEWS

Texas is blessed to have a Legislature that meets only five months every two years.  Check in here January through May of every odd numbered year for the latest news.

STPRA has a team of representatives in Austin that includes Charles Maley, STPRA Advocacy Director and Eric Opiela, attorney, STPRA board President and chair of our Eminent Domain and Endangered Species subcommittees. They educate policy-makers about landowner issues and concerns, inform STPRA staff and members of pending and enacted legislation and administrative actions, facilitate the testimony of STPRA's executive director and STPRA members at legislative and administrative hearings, testify at those hearings themselves when necessary, represent STPRA on the Texas Agriculture Council, and coordinate efforts with allied organizations.
