Texas Democratic Party Chair Statement on TRMPAC Verdict
For Immediate Release:
Contact: Mike Lavigne
512-478-3998
May 26, 2005STATEMENT BY CHARLES SOECHTING
"Judge Hart's landmark decision that TRMPAC failed to report $532,000 in corporate contributions makes two things very clear: there was an illegal conspiracy in 2002 to break Texas law, and Tom DeLay and Tom Craddick were at the center of that conspiracy.
"Everything since then -- the takeover of state government by extremist politicians paid for by corporate interests, the unprecedented mid-decade redistricting to give the GOP seats it couldn't win at the ballot box, the failure of Texas Republicans to address the state's most pressing public policy challenges -- flows from the illegal conspiracy directed by Tom DeLay and Tom Craddick.
"Bankrupt public schools? Eligible children stripped of their health insurance? Soaring college tuition rates? No ethics reform? The highest homeowners' insurance rates in the nation? Blame it on the illegal conspiracy directed by Tom DeLay and Tom Craddick."
