John,

Tomorrow, June 20, 2023, a Texas Senate Committee is expected to
present rules regarding the trial of Texas Attorney General Ken
Paxton to the entire Senate body, who will be acting as the jury.

As we've said before, this sham impeachment is the result of
Speaker Phelan's leadership team empowering Democrats, allowing
them to hold leadership positions and letting them control the
agenda. It is based on allegations already litigated by voters,
led by a liberal Speaker trying to undermine his conservative
adversaries, and investigated by lawyers connected to a Democrat
on the House General Investigations Committee. The voters have
supported General Paxton through three elections-and his
popularity has only grown despite millions of dollars spent
trying to defeat him. Now the Texas House wants to overturn the
election results. We hope the Senate quickly dismisses this
impeachment.

The Texas House impeached Attorney General Paxton without
considering direct evidence, without allowing legislators to
interview or cross-examine witnesses, without placing witnesses
under oath, without allowing members to talk to investigators,
without making witness transcripts available to legislators,
without subpoenaing witnesses with direct knowledge of
allegations, and without allowing the Attorney General present a
defense.

We, at the Republican Party of Texas, have made our position very
clear. We oppose these articles of impeachment because Texas law
forbids them.

Last November, Texas voters overwhelmingly re-elected Attorney
General Paxton to office. While the House leadership may disagree
with this decision, in our country, voters - not legislators -
choose those who hold elected office.

It's truly that clear, and our hope is that the conservative
Texas Senate will do what is right and stop the rogue Texas House
in its tracks.
