MissAmericanPie : When was the last time any of Kingwood's "representatives" held a public, in-person event to hear from those they represent? I don't know.
 
Sisyphus : People can call, email and pay them a visit.

On one hand, I appreciate their passion. On the other hand, don't they have better things to do than to stand out in the hot sun? I know I do.

I call regularly.
Never heard him nor gotten straight answers.
I had to tell the staff member that he is on the committee that was considering eliminating the Medicaid provider tax.
Comical, if it weren't tragic.

MissAmericanPie :
They were not paid and were read by some people.
Some may even think "why?"
Paid staffers should know basic stuff that will cost you and me money.
Do you know what eliminating the Medicaid provider tax implies for the Texas state budget?
If you don't, Mr. Crenshaw failed to inform you.
Representation implies consultation.
At least, that is MY opinion of what it implies.

Ticagro : Windmills are opposed by the administration. MAGA tilts against them.
 
Sisyphus : How well do they work in calm winds vs. the cost involved?

You know that.

Did they really think they are swaying anyone's opinion. I suspect most find them annoying.

If they annoyed most and reassured few, I'm sure they'd take that
