“IMPEACH PERRY” I have heard that is not an option.
If you can find in Texas law where we can, count me in.

Impeach Perry !!!! - Quote:

Texas Government 2306—Unit 6 lecture notes
Although the Texas governor, like most state governors, can be impeached, Jim Ferguson (in 1917) is the only Texas governor to suffer that fate. The reasons were more political than having to do with any real misuse of power or illegal behavior.
...

impeachment: the process used to remove the governor; the state house of representatives, by majority of those present, adopts articles of impeachment and the state senate, by a two thirds majority of those present, can convict and remove the governor from office.
