"That's pretty goofy because everybody knows there's only one person with the authority to call a special session and that's the governor," Abbott said. "Only I have that ability and only I will execute that authority. And here's the way that it works. Not only am I the only one with the authority to call a special session, I get to decide when and I get to decide what will be on that special session." Should Abbott call for a special session, he said it would only put one item on the agenda at a time and would continue the special sessions for two years if need be. so that the bills he wants to see passed get passed.
