Texas Standard For January 29, 2018
A vote to censure a prominent Texas lawmaker on his way out of office. What the move says about the state of the state’s GOP. And: The disaster relief bill that would send tens of billions of dollars to Harvey-devastated parts of Texas is still on hold in Washington. Why some of the state’s farmers may be contributing to the delay. Also: It’s been exactly 100 years since an event in Texas history that you probably don’t remember reading about in school. Why we should remember the Porvenir Massacre. Plus: How re-thinking our message about the flu could do more to keep people healthy. All that and a whole lot more today on the Texas Standard:
