'''Dan Flynn''' (born February 21, 1943)<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.lrl.state.tx.us/legeLeaders/members/memberDisplay.cfm?memberID=5543&searchparams=chamber%3D%26city%3D%26countyID%3D0%26district%3D%26first%3DDan%26gender%3D%26last%3DFlynn%26leaderNote%3D%26leg%3D%26party%3D%26roleDesc%3D%26Committee%3D|title=Legislative Reference Library of Texas: Dan Flynn|publisher=lrl.state.tx.us|accessdate=November 16, 2011}}</ref> is a businessman and rancher from Van,[[Texas]], who is a [[Republican Party|Republican]] member of the [[Texas House of Representatives]] from District 2 (Hunt, Rains, and Van Zandt counties).
In December 2008, Flynn attracted statewide attention when he introduced legislation which would have mandated that public documents be only in English.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.dailytexanonline.com/rep_files_to_make_english_state_s_official_language|title=Representative files to make english state's official language|publisher=dailytexanonline.com|accessdate=November 16, 2011}}</ref>
In 2010, Flynn served as the vice chairman of the House Committee on Financial Institutions. That same year, Flynn served on the House Committee on State Affairs.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.house.state.tx.us/members/dist2/flynn.htm|title=Dan Flynn: Texas House of Representatives Member Page|publisher=house.state.tx.us|accessdate=November 16, 2011}}</ref>
Late in 2010, Representative [[Bryan Hughes (Texas politician)|Bryan Hughes]] of Mineola in Wood County claimed that [[Larry Phillips]], a lawmaker from Sherman in north Texas, told Hughes that Flynn and [[Erwin Cain]], the newly-elected conservative representative from Sulphur Springs, would be significantly [[redistricting|redistricted]] for the primary election on March 6, 2012, because they had declined to commit to the second-term reelection of Texas House [[Speaker]][[Joe Straus]], a moderate Republican from [[San Antonio]]. In a hearing before the House Ethics Committee, chaired by another East Texas representative, [[Chuck Hopson]] of Jacksonville, an ally of Speaker Straus, Phillips denied having made such a claim to Hughes. Neither Hughes nor Phillips taped the conversation. No judgment was rendered by the committee because of the lack of corroborating witnesses.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.americanindependent.com/158065/texas-house-ethics-panel-takes-no-action-on-alleged-redistricting-threats-by-vice-chair-phillips|title="Texas House Ethics Panel Takes No Action on Alleged Redistricting Threats by Vice-chair Phillips," November 23, 2010|publisher=americanindependent.com|accessdate=September 28, 2011}}</ref>
