Late in 2010, Flynn's colleague, Representative [[Bryan Hughes]] of Mineola in Wood County, claimed that [[Larry Phillips]], a fellow Republican lawmaker from Sherman in north Texas, told Hughes that both Flynn and [[Erwin Cain]], the newly-elected conservative representative from Sulphur Springs, would be significantly [[redistricting|redistricted]] for the next primary election on March 6, 2012, because they had opposed 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 threat 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>
