AUSTIN, Texas — Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick declined to say if enough senators would vote to remove Attorney General Ken Paxton from office should the Capitol’s high chamber hold an impeachment trial.
The Texas House is poised to vote on articles of impeachment for Paxton, which include allegations of bribery and other misconduct, in the coming days. If a majority of members endorse the move, the Senate then would hold a trial to determine whether to remove Paxton from office.
