Whyte's support of the controversial Republican-backed bill suggests he's likely to replace Clayton Perry as council's resident naysayer. SanAntonio SATX SanAntonioTX Texas DeathStarBill TexasGOP
Marc Whyte was elected to former councilman Clayton Perry's District 10 seat.
"Simply put, in my view, this decision is short-sighted, ignores the needs of businesses in San Antonio and around Texas, and is yet another attempt by our city government to try to exert power and have control in areas it should not,", a measure passed by the Texas Legislature that would bar municipalities from enacting business-related statutes that go further than existing state law.
Meanwhile, Whyte's support of the bill suggests he's willing to play conservative naysayer on a council dominated by moderates and progressives — just like Perry, who spent three terms doing the same. Whyte won the District 10 seat after Perry, in the fallout from a DWI arrest, declined to run for a fourth term.
