A significant donation was made to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. The chair of Texas Tech's board donated $275,000 to Paxton. This donation is notable due to its timing, as it occurred the day before Paxton intervened in a matter involving Brendan Sorsby. Further details about the donation and Paxton's intervention can be found through The Texas Tribune, which reported on the matter.
