LSG Joins Democratic House Members, Legislative Caucuses, State Employees and the Texas AFL-CIO in Petition to Stop Governor Abbott's Unconstitutional Veto of Legislature

June 25, 2021  

Chairman Garnet Coleman announced today that the Texas Legislative Study Group (LSG) has joined the petition for a writ of mandamus asking the Texas Supreme Court to immediately overturn Gov. Greg Abbott’s unconstitutional veto of funding for the legislative branch of state government.
 
“In almost 30 years as a legislator, the Governor’s attempt to veto a co-equal branch of state government is the most shameful abuse of power that I have witnessed,” Coleman said. “Texans expect their elected official to work together to solve problems, but the Governor apparently prefers to play politics and threaten democracy instead of doing the work the voters elected us to do.”
 
The petition for a writ of mandamus asks the Texas Supreme Court to halt the execution of the governor’s veto. A copy of the petition can be found here.
The Legislative Study Group (LSG) is a caucus in the Texas House of Representatives that is committed to developing sound public policy that benefits all Texas families. Created in 1993, the LSG has become one of the leading policy resources in the Texas Capitol.
