Are you a fan of South Plains politics? Here are your Talking Points for this week.
What if your new boss gets you a job running a business you once vowed to destroy? Is that a good thing? For former Texas Governor Rick Perry it is but is it good for West Texas? We’ll ask an expert.
What is the truth? You ask people on both sides of the abortion issue and you’re liable to get a completely different versions of the truth. One version, in a state booklet, is causing contraversy.
Also this week we discuss the good news and the bad news. Property values, as a whole, are up in Texas. That’s good but that means your property taxes are up. That’s not so good. Although most of us are generally okay with tax money that goes to pay for our kid’s schools. The bad news is it’s not enough. Texas is too big, with too many kids and they all deserve the best.

Talking Points with Bryan Mudd airs each Sunday morning at 11:30 a.m. and Sunday evenings at 11:05 p.m.
