After the Texas Legislature adjourned without reuthorizing the Texas Department of Insurance, Gov. Rick Perry stated he was considering other options to facilitate the continuing operation of TDI besides a special legislative session.
However, a special session will likely occur after all, the governor says, in order to take up legislation necessary to keep TDI operating. Without such a bill, the department is slated to close by Sept. 1, 2010, under Texas sunset laws.
Perry has not set a date for the session.
He did, however, break his right collar bone while mountain biking in Austin on June 9, the governor’s office said. The governor was treated at a local hospital and released.
