Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton faces an impeachment trial in the Texas Senate. It's scheduled to start Aug. 28.
In case anyone's wondering, Texas Sen. Angela Paxton has told the world that she'll take part in the impeachment trial of her husband, embattled Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton. “Each time I was elected, I took an oath to uphold the Constitution and the laws of this great state, and Texas law compels each member of the Senate to attend when the Senate meets as a court of impeachment,” Angela Paxton, R-McKinney, said in. “As a member of the Senate, I hold these obligations sacred and I will carry out my duties, not because it is easy, but because the Constitution demands it and because my constituents deserve it.
The Texas Constitution doesn't explicitly say what constitutes a conflict of interest in a Senate impeachment trial. However, the document calls on lawmakers to sit out votes in which they are personally invested. "A member who has a personal or private interest in any measure or bill, proposed, or pending before the Legislature, shall disclose the fact to the House, of which he is a member, and shall not vote thereon,"
