Deutsche Übersetzung

Jeder Mensch hat von Natur aus das Recht, sich selbst zu regieren; und Regierungen, unabhängig davon, ob sie auf Mehrheiten oder Minderheiten gegründet sind, müssen ihr Recht aus der ausdrücklichen oder stillschweigenden Zustimmung der Regierten ableiten und den Beschränkungen unterliegen, die sie auferlegen können.

Sigmund Freud

I am pleased to report that Texas is known for having one of the strongest set of open government laws in our Nation. And ever since that experience, I have long believed that our federal government could use 'a little Texas sunshine.'
