Texas Lt. Gov. presses to delay Camp Mystic reopening until flood probe concludes
Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick urged the Texas Department of State Health Services to withhold Camp Mystic’s summer license renewal until a legislative inquiry into the July 4 Guadalupe River flood deaths is finished, amid a federal lawsuit accusing state officials of failing to enforce evacuation rules; Camp Mystic plans to reopen on a separate Cypress Lake property, prompting criticism from families and lawmakers about safety and regulatory oversight.
