The information shown is published by the State of Texas under the state's open-records laws, which treat the names, job titles, agencies, and salaries of public employees as fundamentally public information. If you are this employee and believe a record needs correction, see our about page for the source-of-record process — corrections must be made at the agency or with the state office that publishes the underlying dataset, not on this site, because we mirror published data and do not hold a copy of record.
