Doing some light reading before session starts. Good read @TAMU Chancellor Sharp. We must prepare for future natural disasters. Hurricane Harvey devastated our region and we need to address flood mitigation, case management, & infrastructure. #txlege #HurricaneHarvey

The Joint Select Committee to Determine a Sufficient Balance of the Economic Stabilization Fund is meeting this morning to determine a sufficient balance of the ESF. The Rainy Day Fund currently holds $12.48 billion - the highest it has ever been and the largest in the US.

Great meeting tonight with @BarkerFlood , a group of citizens working on flood control solutions in our community. About 90 people came out to hear how we can avoid future Harveys.

With heavy rains & flooding in many regions across Texas I’ve increased the readiness of The State Operations Center. State resources are available to assist local officials in their response efforts. Please heed all local warnings. #txlege everythinglubbock.com/news/s…
