Today’s Big Stories

1. Dallas Stars part ways with coach Pete DeBoer

Dallas Stars coach Pete DeBoer was fired Friday after three seasons with the team, getting to the Western Conference final each time but never advancing further for a shot at the Stanley Cup.

The move came less than a week since the Stars ended their season with a 6-3 loss at home to Edmonton in Game 5 of the West final.

2. Former Texas DACA recipient disappointed after cancellation of in-state tuition for undocumented students

In a stunning reversal of a decades-old policy, Texas will no longer offer undocumented immigrants who live in the state the same discount on college tuition provided to other in-state students. The decision may trigger legal challenges, but also convince other Republican-led states to do the same.

Houston native Pedro Villalobos is a licensed criminal defense attorney in Central Texas. The 34-year-old said his education was made possible because of reduced in-state tuition at the University of Texas at Austin.

3. Woman in Texas dies from brain-eating amoeba after clearing her sinuses with RV tap water

A Texas woman died after contracting a brain-eating amoeba from tap water she used to clear out her sinuses.

A new Centers for Disease Control and Prevention investigation found that the 71-year-old woman got sick four days after using a nasal irrigation device filled with tap water from an RV at a Texas campground.

4. Gov. Greg Abbott sees success with legislative agenda

Gov. Greg Abbott had a successful legislative session, as the now-closed Legislature passed all seven of the emergency items that were on his wish list. 

Abbott is now on a bill signing spree. Before the Legislature adjourned Monday, the governor signed one of his priority items — to create the Texas Cyber Command Center in San Antonio, where the state’s cyber security department will be housed.
