Texas Government Structure LITERACY · 7TH GRADE Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. Texas government is deliberately decentralised, a reaction to the powerful governorship of the Reconstruction era. The 1876 constitution created a plural executive, in which the lieutenant governor, attorney general, comptroller, and several other officials are elected independently and do not answer to the governor. The legislature meets in regular session only every two years, for 140 days, which concentrates enormous activity into a short window and gives the governor real power through the veto after adjournment. The lieutenant governor, who presides over the Senate and controls its committees and calendar, is widely regarded as the most powerful office in the state. Judges are elected in partisan elections, and local government runs through 254 counties, more than any other state. Questions: 1 What is a plural executive? 2 How often and for how long does the legislature meet? 3 Which office is widely regarded as the most powerful? www.littleactivity.com 7th Grade · Literacy
