Yet another reason to insist on TERM LIMTS at all levels! Don't let 'em stay long enough to get bought.
It doesn’t matter. Term Limits in Laredo would do no good.
You might as well already consider Laredo as in Mexico because that is the way everything operates down there.
Term Limits would only have them replacing the officials with other friends and family members faster than they do now. And, If anyone dares to try to change things, they are killed.
I have heard too many times throughout various businesses & people I have known the statement “This is just the way things work around here if you want to do business”.
