Rep. Warren Chisum today announced that he and nine other anti-Straus House Republicans formally will call for a meeting of the chamber's GOP caucus on Jan. 5, nearly a week before the start of the new session.
The intent is to break with Texas tradition and force selection of the next speaker to occur within a party caucus.

Warren won't be happy until Austin is run like DC. He's still got more in common with Nancy Pelosi than Ronald Reagan.
ReplyDeleteI think it's obvious to everyone now that this isn't about a conservative speaker, this is about power for certain Craddick lieutenants like Phil King who can't stand not being able to raise money from companies they regulate.
Shameful. Absolutely shameful to see Republicans acting like Democrats.
