LCRA Probe Sparks House Debate Over Investigation
In a heated Texas House session the LCRA investigation topic returns, with Johnson citing past allies who helped defeat Martin in 1944 and urging action against critics. El Paso members defend constituents while lawmakers note prior REA and NYA connections, with Isaacks recalling a prior 1944 probe finding wrongdoing and Bean hinting at rumors about John Connally. The debate centers on political revenge versus accountability and whether to expand LCRA board membership.
