United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas Fort Worth Division
Case 4:21-cv-00595-O Document 11 Filed 06/02/21 Page 1 of 14 PageID 333 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS FORT WORTH DIVISION Sid Miller, Greg Macha, James Meek, Jeff Peters, and Lorinda O’Shaughnessy, on behalf of themselves and others similarly situated, Plaintiffs, Case No. 4:21-cv-00595-O v. Tom Vilsack, in his official capacity as Secretary of Agriculture, Defendant. PLAINTIFFS’ FIRST AMENDED CLASS-ACTION COMPLAINT The Supreme Court of the United States said 125 years ago that: [T]he constitution of the United States, in its present form, forbids, so far as civil and political rights are concerned, discrimination by the gen- eral government, or by the states, against any citizen because of his race. All citizens are equal before the law. The guaranties of life, liberty, and property are for all persons, within the jurisdiction of the United States, or of any state, without discrimination against any because of their race. Those guaranties, when their violation is properly presented in the reg- ular course of proceedings, must be enforced in the courts, both of the nation and of the state, without reference to considerations based upon race. Gibson v. State of Mississippi, 162 U.S. 565, 591 (1896); see also Bolling v. Sharpe, 347 U.S. 497 (1954) (citing Gibson and holding that segregation in the District of Co- lumbia public schools violated the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment). Equal rights under law is the cornerstone of American constitutional jurispru- dence: the principle that all citizens, regardless of status, wealth, race, color, religion, or creed, have the same rights and are entitled to the same standard of justice. -

April 8, 2020 The Honorable Wayne Christian The Honorable Christi Craddick The Honorable Ryan Sitton Railroad Commission of Texas P.O. Box 12967 Austin, Texas 78711-2967 Submitted via email to [email protected]. RE: Comments by Public Citizen on Verified complaint of Pioneer Natural Resources U.S.A. Inc. and Parsley Energy Inc to determine reasonable market demand for oil in the state of Texas Public Citizen appreciates the opportunity to provide these comments. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss our recommendations further. Please contact Texas office director Adrian Shelley at [email protected], 713-702-8063. I. Current Market Forces Demand A Cut in Production The Railroad Commission must act now to curtail production through proration. We join Environment Texas and others in calling for proration to occur based on company waste through flaring and other pollution emissions. Proration to curtail oil production in Texas is now necessary due to current market forces. Texas and the nation are experiencing historic surplus and low prices. Supply now exceeds demand and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. There are a number of reasons why. a. Global supply surplus There is a global supply surplus caused by an ongoing war for market share between Saudi Arabia and Russia. Railroad Commissioner Ryan Sitton estimates a global market surplus of 10 to 15 percent, roughly 10 to 15 million barrels/day.1 Petitioners assert that a production surplus could overwhelm the handling, processing, and storage industries. This risk to certain industry participants is one reason petitioners ask for proration. -

The first section examines the location of the members of the Texas Senate and of the Texas House on the liberal-conservative dimension along which legislative politics takes place in Austin. In both chambers, every Republican is more conservative than every Democrat and every Democrat is more liberal than every Republican. There does, however, exist substantial ideological diversity within the respective Democratic and Republican delegations in each chamber. The second section explores the extent to which each senator and each representative was on the winning side of the non-lopsided final passage votes (FPVs) on which they voted. -

FACETS OF TEXAS LEGAL HISTORY Frances Spears Cloyd* OR three hundred years Spain ruled vast areas in the Western hemisphere. She regarded these colonial possessions as being en- tirely the King's, for his use and benefit. She exploited them for royal profit through a tight trade monopoly and extended her laws into them. Her domination was approaching an end when the Anglo-Ameri- cans began to come into Texas. Moses Austin got permission from the Spanish government to take a colony into Texas in 1821. He died before he was able to complete his project and bequeathed the responsibility to his son, Stephen. In this same year Mexico and Spain were clashing. Iturbide led a pow- erful liberal movement based on unity of all classes, independence under a Bourbon prince with power limited by a constitution, and protection of the Catholic Church. Mexico proclaimed her independence from Spain and proceeded to the drafting of an extremely complex constitution.' It was completed and promulgated in 1824.
