The first 30-day special session in Texas ended with no new laws made and the House and Senate still deadlocked on property tax cuts.

The Legislature’s first overtime session jumped to a quick start on day one, when House members quickly approved their versions of property tax cuts and enhanced smuggling penalties and left town, telling senators to take it or leave it.
