Gov. Abbott warns of potential flash flooding across Texas this week (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Gov. Greg Abbott urged Texans on Monday to prepare for heavy rain that could cause flash flooding across parts of the state over the next several days. “There is still time for Texans to be able to take action ahead of this heavy rain hitting your region,” Abbott said during a briefing in Austin. Addressing residents in West Texas and the Panhandle, he added: “From Amarillo to Lubbock to El Paso, be prepared in the next 24 hours to take action needed to protect yourself.” The National Weather Se
Why Texas Republican donors give — and why the state matters to GOP fundraising (opens the original)

The Republican National Committee’s first-ever midterm party convention is this week in Dallas. It’ll feature a slew of candidates who are on the ballot this fall, plus one big name that isn’t: President Donald Trump. RNC organizers say they expect 20,000 people at the American Airlines in Dallas this week.

During one economic panel discussion, attendees used their phones to answer questions about the issues that mattered most to them. As they submitted their responses, a word cloud began forming on the screen at the front of the room. “Cost

Read excerpt
Back in 2013, the Texas Legislature created a tax incentive designed to encourage companies to build large data centers in the state. At the time, state lawmakers said it would attract billions of dollars in private investment to Texas — investment that would far eclipse the millions in tax revenue the state expected to forgo over its next two fiscal years. But as the Texas data center boom continues, recent projections estimate the incentive could cost the state several billion dollars in its n
