Texas Standard For May 13, 2019
The clock is winding down on the Texas legislative session. But there’s a lot left to be done. We’ll have the latest on what affects you from under the dome. And: The big business of toy guns.

We’ll have the latest on that and a whole lot more today on the Texas Standard:
