We’re live with Texas Railroad Commissioner @ChristiCraddick to discuss the recent historic drop in oil prices, what Texas energy producers are saying and the anticipated impact on the state’s budget.

Tune in here: #ttevents twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…
Last week, the Texas Railroad Commission decided against imposing oil production cuts despite cratering prices.

@ChristiCraddick says “I think we’ve clearly made the right decision.” bit.ly/3fOt3mv
@ChristiCraddick Reader question: “Should we hasten a transition to wind and solar to break free of global market forces?”

@ChristiCraddick: “I think there is room in the market for everything” ... but we “can’t pick winners and losers for the energy market.”

As a licensed professional counselor, Cyndi Doyle is an expert at putting aside her own emotions to support clients through their anxiety, stress and trauma.

But the weight of a pandemic takes a toll on mental health counselors, too. bit.ly/35TzRKR
2/ A @KFF poll found that nearly half of American adults said their mental health has been negatively impacted because of the virus. bit.ly/35TzRKR
3/ While Doyle typically works three days per week and sees between 24 and 27 clients, the coronavirus pandemic brought a surge of new demand, so she started working up to five days a week and seeing as many as 36 clients per week. bit.ly/35TzRKR

Breaking: The Texas Department of Criminal Justice will begin widespread testing of state prisoners for the coronavirus.

Inmates will administer the tests to themselves. bit.ly/35Rcr91
A spokesperson said the agency is going to change how it reports its numbers on coronavirus infections in its prisons — the number of negative tests will likely be removed from reported data. bit.ly/35Rcr91
That would publicly obscure what percentage of tested inmates and employees have the virus. bit.ly/35Rcr91

2/ Tayub was brought to the U.S. from Mexico by his father 20 years ago and works under the Obama-era DACA program.

He is one of about 652,900 DACA recipients in the U.S., including about 108,000 in Texas, according to @MigrationPolicy.

3/ In 2017, @realdonaldtrump said he was ending DACA, and after a series of court battles, the Supreme Court is expected to make a decision on the program’s fate this year.
