No tickets, no nothing from regulated industries
Texas Railroad Commission candidate Dale Henry, D-Lampasas, has jumped on R.A. Dyer's PoliTex item about Railroad Commissioner Michael L. Williams snagging some freebie Super Bowl tickets in 2004 from a lobbyist for CenterPoint Energy.
In a press release today Henry says: “The members of the Texas Railroad Commission should not take money from–and should not be beholden to–the industries they regulate. This is why I plan to, as Railroad Commissioner, ask the Texas Legislature to pass a campaign finance bill that will prohibit the practice of Railroad Commissioners accepting money from the industries they regulate.”
