Proposed changes to Texas environmental agency rejected by state sunset panel

Several proposals aimed at changing Texas’ environmental agency were rejected late this afternoon by the Texas Sunset Advisory Commission, including placing the agency under an elected chief instead of the current appointees. By a 10-2 vote, the Sunset Commission, which periodically reviews state agencies’ performance, denied the environmental management shift, proposed by commission member Rep. Rafael Anchia, D-Dallas.
