Deeia Beck confirmed as public insurance counsel | Trail Blazers Blog

Deeia Beck, who represents consumers in insurance matters, was reappointed to her post in a unanimous Senate vote Wednesday despite a rocky confirmation hearing.

In that hearing, Sen. Troy Fraser, R-Horseshoe Bay, wanted to know why Beck had stood up Sen. Kelly Hancock, R-North Richland Hills, for a meeting. She said no such meeting had been scheduled. Fraser said that?s not what Hancock told him. Beck said she?d take a lie detector test.

Some of the questions involved her involvement in politics in her once hometown of Fort Worth and if she had contributed to a rival of Hancock.

Her confirmation had been held up for more than two months.

Sen. Kirk Watson, D-Austin, said that Beck was able to communicate with senators during that lapsed time and apparently worked out any misunderstandings.
