Texas governor Greg Abbott and lieutenant governor Dan Patrick have ordered an investigation of Texas Southern University, a historically Black institution in Houston, after a state audit found evidence of financial mismanagement and bookkeeping inconsistencies, The Texas Tribune reported. The audit found 700 invoices, totaling $280 million, linked to contracts that were listed as expired in the institution's database. Another 800 invoices, worth $160 million, were dated before the purchases were approved, the Tribune reported.
