Cut back Perry's mansion for Tarrant ju-co kids? Nope, House says

Rep. Lon Burnam, D-Fort Worth, proposed trimming $35,000 from an account in the governor's office that pays $10,000 a month for rent and maintenance of a rented home for Gov. Rick Perry in a gated community in West Austin. Perry's living there while the arson-gutted Governor's Mansion is being restored.
Burnam wanted to transfer the $35,000 to ease a $4.7 million cut this year to Tarrant County College, which just opened its fifth two-year college in downtown Fort Worth.
