Janet Elliott of The Houston Chronicle’s Austin bureau says that Robert Talton, who was appointed to the House Criminal Jurisprudence Committee may not attend its meetings, “I never asked for Criminal Jurisprudence. I don’t want to be on it. I’m not going to go to a committee I don’t want to be on,” said Talton, who added that he will read a statement from the back microphone next week.
If Talton does not attend, that would leave only one Republican on the committee and 7 Democrats.
Yea he should stay home and watch TV!
