Our “Money Behind the Committee Chair” series spotlights the Texas lawmakers chairing prominent committees during the 87th Legislative Session, as well as the individual donors and PACs who have supported their campaigns leading up to this session.

Ms. Walton supported a variety of candidates this cycle, from both ends of the political spectrum. As an example, although she donated to Democrat candidates, she also contributed $10,000 to State Representative Matt Rinaldi, considered by many to be the most conservative member of the Texas House of Representatives.
