==The "Dirty Thirty"== "Dirty Thirty" was the name given, by Dan Cain, House Committee Clerk, to thirty members of the 1971 [[Texas House of Representatives]] who grouped against Texas Speaker of the House [[Gus Mutscher]] and other Texas officials charged in the Sharpstown scandal. The coalition of thirty Democrats and Republicans, conservatives and liberals, has been given credit for keeping the Sharpstown stock fraud scandal alive as a political issue.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/wmdsh |title=DIRTY THIRTY.|work=[[The Handbook of Texas Online]] |first=John |last=Johnson}}</ref>
