Second Reading Podcast: Unpacking Texans' reviews of legislative action on policy in the latest UT/Texas Politics Project Poll
June 26, 2023 | By: Texas Politics Project

In a new Second Reading Podcast, Jim Henson and Josh Blank sort through the crosscurrents in public opinion and how they are manifest in reviews of legislative action and inaction in the latest UT/Texas Politics Project Poll. See below for the podcast link, links and graphics of some of the results that come up in the discussion, and a post focused on policy and issues published the day the poll results were made public. Many results get discussed in the podcast – to scroll through those results, start with the "Latest Poll" page, which lists links to graphics for most items on the poll.
