Step-by-step explanation:
The chief executive of the state of Texas is the governor of Texas. The people of the state elect him for a term of four years. The governor of the state is responsible for making policy recommendations that the leaders of both the State House and Senate may sponsor and precede as bills. He is the only person who appoints the Secretary of State and other members of the board and councils that oversee the heads of state agencies.
