SPEAKER: Article IX(c) of the Texas Constitution, Article III, Section 9(c), has
the house choose its own officers, and the housekeeping resolution, the Texas
House is delegated to the speaker to determine its own officers. Under the
resolution, the speaker has the sole authority to appoint and discharge house
officers. The manual you are referring to does not apply to this situation.
GEREN: Why do we have the manual, then, if it does not apply to employees?
All these gentlemen, or House Administration, could meet and approve their
other compensation. That's all that would be required, and I personally believe
they shouldn't be serving until that happens, sir. Thank you.
