Texas Rep. Bryan Slaton Resigns Amid Sexual Misconduct Allegations and Possible Expulsion.

Texas State Representative Bryan Slaton has resigned from the Texas House after an investigative panel found he had an inappropriate sexual relationship with a 19-year-old woman on his staff. The House General Investigative Committee recommended that Slaton be the first state representative expelled from the body since 1927. Slaton, who is married, is among the most socially conservative lawmakers in the chamber and has been one of the loudest voices this session for cracking down on drag shows. Calls for his resignation began to grow soon after the committee report was provided to House members while they were meeting Saturday.
