King withdraws TXU bill
Speaker Craddick was going to let Rep. Phil King appeal the chair's ruling to uphold a point of order by Rep. Jim Dunnam against the bill.
But after Rep. Burt Solomons, R-Carrollton, said that might set a bad precedent, Mr. King said he was giving up.
He then had the House pass another "securitization bill" that he said would give electric customers in Houston some rate relief.
