Texas Standard For February 20, 2018
86 cents of every dollar donated to state-level campaigns in Texas went to Republicans. We’ll do the numbers. And: It’s here: early voting is underway for the Texas primaries. We’ll explore the rules behind where you can cast a ballot and why. Also: A city on the Texas coast is making plans to become the first new cruise ship port-of-call in about half a century. We’ll talk with the mayor leading the effort. Plus: A big U.S. company is changing the way they do healthcare and it’s turning some heads. It may surprise you which company it is. And we’ll hear from the filmmakers behind a new movie about an event that thrust one Texas city into the national spotlight a few decades ago. Those stories and a whole lot more today on the Texas Standard:
