Governor Greg Abbott today directed the Texas Rangers to open an investigation into the City of Elgin for potential violations of state law.

"There have been serious and potentially criminal accusations made against the City of Elgin that need to be investigated," said Governor Abbott. "Texans expect their elected officials to be honest stewards of taxpayer dollars and conduct the people's business openly, and in compliance with Texas law. Due to the accusations of chronic financial mismanagement, including inconsistent accounting practices and unreconciled bank accounts, in potential violation of multiple state laws, I directed the Texas Rangers to launch an investigation into the City of Elgin's finances to ensure transparency and full compliance with state law."
