Two Republican lawmakers in the Texas House are calling for the resignation of state Rep. Bryan Slaton, R-Royse City, after reports that he had an inappropriate relationship with an intern.
on a complaint filed against Slaton, alleging the Republican called the intern late at night and invited her to his Austin condo. A source with direct knowledge of the incident told the Tribune that “Slaton drank alcohol with the intern, who was under 21.”Short didn’t respond to a detailed request for comment from The Texas Newsroom.
However, on Monday, he issued a statement confirming he was hired by the Republican “in a matter relating to a possible complaint filed against him.” “We are aware of outrageous allegations circulating online by second-tier media that make false claims against Representative Slaton,” Short said before the Texas Tribune story.
Yes, I am angry at several republicans for voting against school choice funding. They should regret that vote. I am absolutely furious at a republican whom I believe to be a sexual predator. I’ve never been so ticked off at another legislator. 🤬 He should resign now.
