State Rep. Harold Dutton's efforts to get Speaker Joe Straus to allow members to swap committees has failed again, he says. After the speaker said several times from the front mic that he won't allow the switch, on Wednesday, he asked the speaker for a formal ruling.

But today, Dutton formally withdrew his motion to get an official ruling.

"I knew I was going to get denied," said Dutton. "And they won't let me appeal."

There's too much politics in Texas to fit into a newscast, so the fun continues here.
