State Representative Jeff Leach (R-Plano) is facing a lawsuit due to defamatory comments he made on social media about TEXIT supporters.
In a series of tweets after the filing of the Texas Independence Referendum Act, Rep. Leach accused a TEXIT supporter, who is not a legislator, of treason and sedition. Furthermore, he vowed to use his power as a representative to ensure that legislators supporting the Texas Independence Referendum Act – an act that would place the question of Texas independence on the ballot – wouldn’t pass a single bill in the current legislative session.
