I found this item over on Houston Democrats. David Van Os, a candidate for Texas Attorney General, is planning a 24-hour filibuster on the steps of the Capitol building here in Austin, starting Friday, March 3rd at 6pm.

In 1836 the founders of Texas declared and won their independence from dictatorship and entered the community of nations.

In our day the people of Texas must again win their independence from the modern dictatorship of corruption, cronyism, and corporate government.

Please join me as I honor the 170th anniversary of the Texas Declaration of Independence by conducting a 24-hour Filibuster for Independence at the seat of Texas government on the State Capitol grounds.

I’ve heard good things about Van Os. This’ll be a good opportunity to check him out.
