NEPOTISM LAW
The candidate must sign this statement indicating his awareness of the nepotism law. The nepotism prohibitions of chapter 573,
Government Code, are summarized below:
No officer may appoint, or vote for or confirm the appointment or employment of any person related within the second degree
by affinity (marriage) or the third degree by consanguinity (blood) to himself, or to any other member of the governing body or
court on which he serves when the compensation of that person is to be paid out of public funds or fees of office. However,
nothing in the law prevents the appointment, voting for, or confirmation of anyone who has been continuously employed in the
office or employment for the following period prior to the election or appointment of the officer or member related to the
employee in the prohibited degree: six months, if the officer or member is elected at the general election for state and county
officers.
No candidate may take action to influence an employee of the office to which the candidate is seeking election or an employee or
officer of the governmental body to which the candidate is seeking election regarding the appointment or employment of a
person related to the candidate in a prohibited degree as noted above. This prohibition does not apply to a candidate’s actions
with respect to a bona fide class or category of employees or prospective employees.
Examples of relatives within the third degree of consanguinity are as follows:
(1) First degree: parent, child;
(2) Second degree: brother, sister, grandparent, grandchild;
(3) Third degree: great-grandparent, great-grandchild, uncle, aunt, nephew, niece.
These include relatives by blood, half-blood, and legal adoption. Examples of relatives within the second degree of affinity are as
follows:
(1) First degree: spouse, spouse’s parent, son-in-law, daughter-in-law;
(2) Second degree: brother’s spouse, sister’s spouse, spouse’s brother, spouse’s sister, spouse’s grandparent.
Persons related by affinity (marriage) include spouses of relatives by consanguinity, and, if married, the spouse and the spouse’s
relatives by consanguinity. These examples are not all inclusive.

LEY SOBRE EL NEPOTISMO
El candidato deberá firmar esta declaración para indicar que tiene conocimiento sobre la ley sobre el nepotismo. A continuación figuran
las prohibiciones del nepotismo según el capítulo 573 de Código Gobierno:
Ningún funcionario podrá nombrar, votar por o confirmar el nombramiento o empleo de ninguno de sus parientes en segundo grado
por afinidad (matrimonio) o en tercer grado por consanguinidad (sangre), o de los parientes de cualquier otro integrante del cuerpo
directivo o tribunal en que el funcionario celebre sesión cuando la compensación para esa persona se pagare con fondos públicos u
honorarios de su puesto oficial. Sin embargo, la ley no prohíbe el nombramiento, el votar por o la confirmación de ninguna persona que
haya trabajado en la oficina de manera continua o el empleo para el siguiente período antes de la elección o el nombramiento del
funcionario o miembro emparentado con el empleado en el grado prohibido: seis meses, si el funcionario o miembro se elige en una
elección general de funcionarios de estado y condado.
Ningún candidato podrá influir sobre un empleado relacionado al puesto oficial al cual el candidato aspira o un empleado o funcionario
del cuerpo fiscal al cual el candidato aspira respecto del nombramiento o el empleo de un pariente del candidato en un grado prohibido
según se indica arriba. Esta restricción no se dirige a las acciones de un candidato respecto de una clase o categoría de empleados o
posibles empleados de buena fe.
Los ejemplos de parentesco en tercer grado por consanguinidad son los siguientes:
(1) Primer grado: padre, madre, hijo(a);
(2) Segundo grado: hermano(a), abuelo(a), nieto(a);
(3) Tercer grado: bisabuelo(a), bisnieto(a), tío(a), sobrino(a).
Los siguientes incluyen parentescos de consanguinidad, medios hermanos y adopción legal. Los ejemplos de parentescos en segundo
grado por afinidad son los siguientes:
(1) Primer grado: cónyuge, suegro(a), yerno, nuera;
(2) Segundo grado: cuñado(a), abuelo(a) del cónyuge.
Las personas que están emparentadas por afinidad (matrimonio) incluyen los cónyuges de parientes emparentados por consanguinidad,

CODE OF FAIR CAMPAIGN PRACTICES
There are basic principles of decency, honesty, and fair play that every candidate and political committee in this state
has a moral obligation to observe and uphold, in order that, after vigorously contested but fairly conducted campaigns,
our citizens may exercise their constitutional rights to a free and untrammeled choice and the will of the people may be
fully and clearly expressed on the issues.
THEREFORE:
(1) I will conduct the campaign openly and publicly and limit attacks on my opponent to legitimate challenges to my
opponent’s record and stated positions on issues.
(2) I will not use or permit the use of character defamation, whispering campaigns, libel, slander, or scurrilous attacks
on any candidate or the candidate’s personal or family life.
(3) I will not use or permit any appeal to negative prejudice based on race, sex, religion, or national origin.
(4) I will not use campaign material of any sort that misrepresents, distorts, or otherwise falsifies the facts, nor will I
use malicious or unfounded accusations that aim at creating or exploiting doubts, without justification, as to the
personal integrity or patriotism of my opponent.
(5) I will not undertake or condone any dishonest or unethical practice that tends to corrupt or undermine our system
of free elections or that hampers or prevents the full and free expression of the will of the voters, including any
activity aimed at intimidating voters or discouraging them from voting.
(6) I will defend and uphold the right of every qualified voter to full and equal participation in the electoral process,
and will not engage in any activity aimed at intimidating voters or discouraging them from voting.
(7) I will immediately and publicly repudiate methods and tactics that may come from others that I have pledged not
to use or condone. I shall take firm action against any subordinate who violates any provision of this code or the
laws governing elections.
I, the undersigned, candidate for election to public office in the State of Texas or campaign treasurer of a political
committee, hereby voluntarily endorse, subscribe to, and solemnly pledge myself to conduct the campaign in accordance
with the above principles and practices.
