Ken Paxton Takes Legal Action Against Texas House Impeachment Managers

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton intends to file criminal complaints against the group of state representatives who led his impeachment, accusing them of releasing his personal information in violation of a new state law. Paxton claims that the release of his personal information was intended to threaten him with harm. The 12 House representatives being targeted by Paxton led the impeachment trial in the Senate, which ultimately acquitted him of corruption and bribery charges. Paxton plans to file the criminal complaints in each of the eight counties represented by the impeachment managers.
