Letter from William P. Clements to Ed Hunter regarding information contained in an newspaper article, May 13, 1981
-
Description
-
Letter from William P. Clements to Ed Hunter, executive editor of the Houston Post, regarding information contained in an newspaper article. Clements claims that the article in question, "Justice's order forcing State to come to grips with problem" by Richard Vara, contains misinformation about the overcrowding issue in Texas prisons, according to Governor Clements. Included among the errors the Governor cites are: his lack of addressing the overcrowding issue; the Governor's actions involving the Board of Pardons and Paroles; and, his undercutting the Texas Department of Corrections.
