  • A Legal Brief
    QUESTION ONE Is the member selected as Speaker of the House of Representatives subject to removal from the speakership by impeachment under Article XV of the Texas Constitution? The Representatives contend that the member selected by the House to be its Speaker is not subject to impeachment under Article XV of the Texas Constitution. Section 1 of that article vests the power of impeachment in the House of Representatives. Section 2 provides that impeachment of certain enumerated executive and judicial officers shall be by trial in the Senate. 1 The Texas Constitution is different from the United States Constitution, and many other state constitutions, which often also include a class of officials subject to impeachment, rather than limiting impeachment to just certain officials. See, e.g., U.S. CONST. art. II, § 4 (“President, Vice President and all civil Officers” may be impeached); In re Speakership of the House of Representatives, 25 P. 707, 709 (Colo. 1891) (“’[G]overnor and other state and judicial officers . shall be liable to impeachment’”); State ex rel. Haviland v. Beadle, 111 P. 720, 722 (Mont. 1910) (same); Maben v. Rosser, 103 P. 674, 675 (Okla. 1909) (“’Governor and other elective state officers, including the justices of the Supreme Court, shall be liable and subject to impeachment’”); State ex rel. Zimmerman v. Dammann, 228 N.W. 593, 595 (Wis. 1930) (“The house of representatives shall have the power of impeaching all civil officers of this state’”); Op. Me.

COMMENTS EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE AND THE CONGRESS: PERSPECTIVES AND RECOMMENDATIONS The doctrine of executive privilege has surfaced at the height of several controversies recently and this exposure has raised numerous questions concerning its nature, none of which have been more debated than the validity of its existence.' Its advocates have pointed to history, statutes, court decisions, and the Constitution in an effort to justify its use, while its skeptics using the same materials have arrived at a different conclu- sion. The ultimate resolution of this issue is of more than academic con- cern, for executive privilege has created an executive-legislative schism the breadth of which threatens the constititional framework of this na- tion's government. 2 Is executive privilege well-established doctrine or ill- supported dogma? What are the effects of its assertion? And most im- portantly, is constitutional government in the United States institutionally equipped to resolve fundamental differences between its co-equal branches? These are the questions which are raised by the privilege and which will be considered during the course of this analysis.

  • Congressional Encroachment on Executive Branch Communications Susan M
    Congressional Encroachment on Executive Branch Communications Susan M. Daviest INTRODUCTION In 1989, the Department of the Interior began to document all of its contacts with members and committees of Congress. The leg- islature's reaction to this new procedure was swift and disapprov- ing, and in floor debate the House of Representatives voiced its concern that the practice would "really muzzle employees" of the Department in their communications with Congress.1 Congress re- sponded to this fear by including a provision in the Department of the Interior and Related Agencies Appropriations Act of 1990, which read: "None of the funds available under this title may be used to prepare reports on contacts between employees of the De- partment of the Interior and Members and Committees of Con- gress and their staff."'2 This rider on the Appropriations Act, § 119, purported to re- strict the Interior Department's ability to communicate with any- one, including the President, about its activities involving and tes- timony before Congress. The Bush Administration notified Congress that it considered § 119 an unconstitutional intrusion on the chief executive's power to communicate with department mem- bers who were executing the law under his supervision and guid- ance. In a letter commenting on the proposed legislation, the Office of Management and Budget argued that § 119 "is highly objection- able and raises Constitutional concerns. It interferes with the De- partment's ability to carry out Executive functions, and impairs the Department's efforts to act on congressional inquiries in a re- sponsible manner."' t B.S. 1986, Yale University; J.D.
