The Lobby and Lege

A KLRU-TV half-hour series that aired in 2005 and 2007. Every week, journalists, politicos, and other notable Texans take on the issues and politics confronting the Texas Legislature. Hosted by Emmy Award winner Paul Stekler, the series will interweave documentary and discussion to stay one step ahead of the legislation destined to affect our lives long after the legislators head home from Austin.
