The Texas Whip: Update on Dem's Suit Against the Texas Association of Business

The Texas Whip: Update on Dem's Suit Against the Texas Association of Business: "Several corporate donors, most of them insurance companies, are now defendants in a lawsuit filed by three Democrats who lost legislative races in 2002.

The suit alleges improper corporate funding of the candidates' opponents, allegations that a grand jury is also investigating.

The Democrats' lawyer, Buck Wood of Austin, added eight corporations this week to the suit against the Texas Association of Business, a trade group that spent about $1.7 million of corporate money on ads that touted Republicans and criticized Democrats. "
