Texas Standard for February 23, 2016
Washington and Moscow say no more shooting to give peace a chance. A fix for Syria, or more like the fix is in? Also: What’s in a name? An election seen by some as a test for whether Spanish surnames are penalized at the polls. And: For medical emergencies there’s 9-1-1, but who’re you gonna call when the lights go off and the food runs out? Some new number’s trickling in. Plus: A scathing court order to rebuild Texas foster care, that no one seems to be talking about. All that and more, check your watches, it’s Texas Standard time:
