Attorney Mitch Little, who served on Attorney General Ken Paxton’s defense team during his impeachment trial and then defeated incumbent Rep. Kronda Thimesch (R-Carrollton) in the March 5 primary election this year, sat down with The Texan’s senior reporter Brad Johnson.
Little discussed the upheaval of the wide swathe of races like his that defeated incumbents, his commitment to the “Contract with Texas” demands for the next House speaker, and what he thinks the legislation for school choice will look like in the upcoming session.
“I think [the voters] see the legislative process as deformed and dysfunctional, and the primary was really a referendum on that issue not so much Ken Paxton or even school choice, just the function of the legislative body that’s supposed to be deliberative and supposed to be the voice of the people,” said Little.
