What other reasons would Texas lawmakers have for not wanting to reform the legislature from a part-time to a full-time legislative body?

When you post a question asking what
other reasons there are, please tell us what reasons you
already have.  Otherwise, we won't know which ones are "other"
reasons.

I have attached a link to a newspaper article
(from Pittsburgh, PA of all places) that gives Gov. Rick Perry's reasons for not wanting
a full-time legislature.  Basically, he has two very closely connected
reasons:

• There is too much government already. 
  He says that if the legislature were full-time, the legislators would feel the need to
  pass even more laws.  That would make for a more intrusive
  government.


• It would cost too much.  Perry says that all
  of these new laws would end up forcing the government to set up all kinds of new
  programs and hire all kinds of new people and that would be too
  expensive.
