He looks more and more like a liberal leftist that only supports liberals.
We need to get him out.
House Committee Unilaterally Raises Office Budgets, Gives Democrat Vice Chairs $3.6M in New Pay
- In an unprecedented move, the Texas House Administration Committee has unanimously approved significant increases to legislative office budgets without a vote from the full House. Brandon Waltens has the details. https://texasscorecard.com/state/hou...6m-in-new-pay/
- Traditionally, such budgetary changes are enacted through a "housekeeping resolution," which requires approval by all members. However, last month, Speaker Dustin Burrows declared a floor vote unnecessary, allowing the Administration Committee to implement the changes independently.
- The approved adjustments include a $2,000 monthly increase to session office budgets, a $1,000 monthly increase to interim office budgets, the elimination of salary caps for staff, and an increase in the annual carryover of unused funds to $30,000.
- Notably, the 30 Democrat vice chairs of committees will receive an additional $5,000 per month, amounting to an extra $3.6 million over the biennium. Never before have House committee vice chairs received any stipend.
- Is that how you expected your tax dollars to be spent, supercharging the Democrat opposition?
