Texas Lawmaker Allegedly Invited Underage Intern Over to Drink, Gave Her 'Loyalty Test'

Texas state Rep.
Bryan Slaton (R) allegedly had an “inappropriate relationship” with an underage female intern, according to an internal
complaint obtained by the
Texas Tribune. Slaton, who is married, allegedly called the intern after 10 p.m. on Friday, March 31, and invited her to his Austin apartment. A source who works in the Capitol with direct knowledge of the incident told the
Tribune that the intern was under 21 and that Slaton drank alcohol with her. Two of his fellow Republicans have now
called on him to resign.
A legislative staffer filed the complaint with the House General Investigating Committee. Per that complaint, Slaton comes pretty close to blackmailing the intern: He allegedly showed her fake emails that he claimed contained information about their meetup days later and then told her not to talk about it. Sources described it to the
Tribune as “something of a loyalty test”
Slaton graduated from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth and, according to his website, has worked as a
youth minister at several Southern Baptist churches in Texas. He had missed a key budget hearing on Thursday, which surprised insiders as he’d proposed a whopping 27 amendments. He was the only lawmaker absent, per the
Tribune.
Slaton is, of course, vehemently opposed to drag shows and abortion. He
introduced a bill, HB 4129, that would ban drag shows with minors present and has tweeted about drag shows leading to the
grooming of children. He also loves to tweet the sentence: “We must protect Texas kids from
sick adults who want to sexualize them.”
