THE TEXAS HOMEBUILDER BILL, HOUSE BILL 730 WILL BE HEARD THURSDAY MAY 8 AT

9:00 AM AT THE TEXAS STATE CAPITOL. THIS IS THE MOST ANTI-CONSUMER BILL WE

HAVE SEEN TO DATE. PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN.

If you are interested in testifying at the hearing concerning new home

construction defects, please take a few minutes to review the following. If

you have never done this before, we will help you. Your support would be

GREATLY appreciated to stop this bill crafted by the builders for the

builders.

Place:

Come into the capitol on the east side go to the 2nd floor. If you get lost,

ask for the Senate floor.

Get there early to sign in and speak. It is first come first serve. There

will be lots of builders there. Look for me. I will be wearing a grey suit

with a yellowish tie.
