Best Texas Legislator

Gonzalo Barrientos

The senator goes down this session as a man willing to take a stand, in this case, a stand for 17 hours in a filibuster against Rep. Susan Combs' attempt to limit Austin's annexation powers. The filibuster failed, but Barrientos won a compromise with his bill, SB 1395.
