Senior Reporter Brad Johnson sits down with Representative Angelia Orr, a Republican from Itasca, Texas, representing House District 13. They discuss the intense final night of the legislative session, including the passage of Orr's significant House Bill 3749. Orr shares the emotional backstory of the bill related to elective IV therapy safety, which was inspired by a tragic incident in her district.
