Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s wife, a state senator, announced Monday that she will take part in impeachment proceedings against her husband, KHOU reports.
Said Angela Paxton: “Texas law compels each member of the Senate to attend when the Senate meets as a court of impeachment. 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.”
