Stewart Doreen, MRT.com/Midland Reporter-Telegram, May 6, 2021 A point of order by state Rep. Tom Craddick ultimately killed Brooks Landgraf’s radioactive nuclear waste bill.
Craddick reported late Wednesday night that Landgraf, a state representative from Odessa, told Craddick that he will not pursue this legislation further during the 87th Legislature.
“(Wednesday), in the interest of the Permian Basin and House District 82, I called a point of order on House Bill 2692 by Rep. Brooks Landgraf”, Craddick stated in a press release. “The point of order was well taken and sustained by the speaker of the House. This legislation would have not added the protections needed to prevent a high-level radioactive waste ban in Texas.”
