Lawmakers held hearings in Austin on some of the highest-profile items on the agenda, including flood response, redistricting and regulating THC.

Blaise Gainey, who covers the statehouse for The Texas Newsroom, said Democratic lawmakers are considering taking steps to prevent the controversial redistricting plan from getting through the Legislature.

A hearing was set to take place this week in Kerrville, where local residents should have a chance to testify before state lawmakers.
