The Squatter Panic Gets Its Own Eviction Script

The Squatter Panic Gets Its Own Eviction Script

SB 38 is framed around removing certain people from real property; the Patrick pattern is turning every headline panic into another Austin-branded procedure.

The Headline Becomes a Bill

SB 38's caption says it relates to "the eviction from real property of certain persons not entitled to enter, occupy, or remain in possession of the premises."

That is the receipt. It is about an eviction path for certain people not entitled to be on the property.

Property Rights Deserve Competence

Texans care about property rights because homes, land, leases, and small businesses are not abstractions. They are where people keep the lights on.

The satire is not that property owners need remedies. The satire is Patrick's habit of turning every anxiety into another statehouse-branded script, then acting like the script itself is leadership.

Less Panic, More Plain Government

A good government can protect property rights without turning every local problem into campaign-stage theater.

A good government can write clean rules and then get out of the way.

Retire the Theater Department

Vikki Goodwin is the named alternative for Texans tired of government by panic cycle.
