AUSTIN, Texas — State Sen. Kel Seliger became the first Republican on Friday to urge Gov. Greg Abbott to call a special session for lawmakers in wake of the Uvalde school massacre.
In a tweet, Seliger said the Legislature should reconvene “until we do SOMETHING The FBI or DPS BELIEVE will lessen the chance of the next Uvalde Tragedy.” He offered no specific policy proposals.
Seliger isn’t seeking reelection this year, so he won’t be back for the next legislative session that begins in January 2023.
