State agencies are seeing an increase in cyber security threats as Iranian officials vow revenge against the U.S. for killing a top general.

The committee took no further action on the report, which stated that the information produced "militates against criminal prosecution" on retiring House Speaker Dennis Bonnen and state Rep. Dustin Burrows.

Republicans and Democrats are ready for the 2020 battle over the Texas House, with roughly 30 of the 150 seats seen as competitive for both parties.

The Arlington Republican made the decision after filing to run for another term and after the filing deadline had passed.

The drama that unfolded served as the latest reminder that seats in one of the country’s most ethnically diverse counties are some of the most competitive in the state heading into the 2020 election cycle.

The Eagle Pass Democrat was caught on video surveillance dropping an envelope of cocaine on the ground at the Austin airport.

The document says that the envelope had Nevárez's official House seal and held “four small clear baggies” containing a substance found to include cocaine.

Gov. Greg Abbott announced a five-acre plot of land for homeless camping in Austin after he took action to clear people living under state overpasses.

District Attorney Jeri Yenne called Bonnen's behavior "offensive, lacking in integrity" and "demeaning to other human beings."

The leader of the Capitol's lower chamber kept fighting until the end, to the frustration of some of his members.

By Tuesday morning, more than 30 House Republicans had either called for the speaker's resignation or had stated they no longer supported him.

In the biggest blow yet to the House leader's political future, five fellow Republicans said they can't back him moving forward. Their statement comes days after the House GOP caucus condemned Bonnen.

Local leaders felt targeted by state lawmakers even before the release of a secret recording that has imperiled the Texas House speaker's future. Bonnen says he was trying to convey a larger point about those officials and how they treat taxpayers.

The motion was later withdrawn, and after hours of debate, the caucus issued a statement condemning the actions of Bonnen and a top lieutenant.

Of the 17 House members who have called for Bonnen to step down, only four are Democrats.

A handful of Republicans and Democrats have said the GOP leader of the lower chamber should step aside. And so far, no one from Bonnen's own party has publicly come to his defense.

Here’s who was mentioned in the recording where Republican Texas House Speaker Dennis Bonnen urged a hardline conservative activist to politically target members of their own party — and suggested he could get the activist's group media access to lawmakers next legislative session.

Bonnen also spoke disparagingly about multiple Democrats, calling one House member “vile” and suggesting that another’s “wife’s gonna be really pissed when she learns he’s gay.”

Allegations against the Texas House speaker by hardline conservative activist Michael Quinn Sullivan have thrown the chamber into turmoil for the past couple of months.

Instead, Lang said Wednesday, he will run to become a Hood County commissioner.
