State of Texas - August 10, 2025

Most of the Democrats in the Texas House left the state, breaking quorum to block a plan to give the GOP more seats in Congress.  We've seen quorum breaks before, but the response this time is different.  Adam Schwager looks closer at the legal fight surrounding the efforts to block redistricting.  Also, we hear from State Sen. Mayes Middleton, who's pushing legislation to prevent future quorum breaks, and State Rep. Cassandra Garcia Hernandez gives insight into the financial and personal impact of breaking quorum. Youth camp leaders face questions at the State Capitol, as lawmakers look for ways to keep children safe from future floods.  Investigator Matt Grant looks at the proposals and the pushback on ideas to make camp sites safer after the deadly Texas floods. The response to the July floods could bring improvements to the way Texas handles death investigations.  We look at how new legislation being considered could help address challenges facing the system. A lottery winner hit the jackpot, but questions over how she bought the ticket led to a legal challenge that kept her from getting the money.  But now there's a big change.  Dylan McKim reports on why the winner is getting paid despite an ongoing push to change how Texans play the lottery.
