[#TexasPolitics365] 

Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick says people may need to take a coronavirus test 24 hours before testifying during the legislative session, reports the Texas Tribune.

Patrick and Republican state Rep. Dade Phelan, the likely next House speaker, “hope to be able to make an announcement regarding the Session shortly," a senior adviser to Patrick said Saturday.

Patrick said people may have to register online three days before a committee hearing to testify and take a rapid test for the virus 24 hours beforehand.
