Texas House GOP Caucus dinner turns ugly as Chair Leach presses Caucus Chair in waiting Oliverson to support embattled Republican incumbents, per sources

One GOP member reminds us that Dean Craddick and then-Rep. Tan Parker both resigned as caucus chair as soon as they announced for Speaker; Rep. Oliverson has said he will not quit his leadership position even if it creates a conflict for contributors

The private dinner for the members of the Texas House GOP Caucus in Dallas-Fort Worth tonight became heated over the question of whether the soon-to-be Chairman Tom Oliverson will publicly endorse embattled incumbents in their runoffs or step aside.

That’s according to multiple sources in the room.

Here is what we’ve been able to piece together at Quorum Report tonight.
