The misconduct investigation began after two 19-year-old legislative aides and a 21-year-old legislative intern filed complaints in April.
“Children don’t need to be focused on sex and sexualization, and we need to let them just grow up to be children and let them do that as they’re getting closer to being an adult,” Slaton said in an interview last year. Slaton has repeatedly pushed to ban drag shows for kids and has tweeted his support for laws prohibiting gender-affirming healthcare. It also sites his degrees from a Baptist seminary school and his work serving as a youth minister. Slaton’s legislative biography describes him as, “a proud East Texan with values and principles that represent the great people of East Texas” that were formed by his participation in church and family gatherings. “It is the Committee’s unanimous recommendation that, considering the factors stated above, the only appropriate discipline in this matter is expulsion.” “The fact that Slaton has not expressed regret or remorse for his conduct is also egregious and unwarranted,” the committee wrote.
