Bullock seeks clarifying law on indirect state business ties
Lt Gov Bob Bullock urged clarifying the Texas Constitution to define indirect interest by lawmakers in state projects in a 1995 legislative push. The issue arose after Rep Mark Stiles, a calendars committee chair, served as a subcontractor on prison construction. Bullock favors a new statute over constitutional change and focuses on education code and budget, while discussing casino gambling and potential campaign contributions from casino interests.
