FILE - In this July 29, 2014 file photo, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nev. speaks on Capitol Hill in Washington. As the Senate has grown nearly as rancorous and tightly controlled as the House, many say one reason ... more >

A tea party group said theyre happy Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid was demoted with the wave of Republican elects Tuesday evening but theyre not stopping there.

Next up, the Tea Party Express says oust him.

The group is holding a unity press conference Thursday at the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas to outline its plans for the 2016 election.

We fired him last night as Senate majority leader, now our focus is on retiring him once and for all, Tea Party Express executive director Taylor Budowich told The Hill. Thats what the Tea Partys focus is going to be right out of the gate. We arent going to be sitting on our hands waiting for a race to come to us.

The tough talk comes as Mr. Reid has vowed to keep his Democratic leadership position, despite his partys huge Election Day losses.

The Tea Party Express spent more than $1 million trying to toss Mr. Reid in 2010, but candidate Sharron Angle lost her bid against him by almost six percentage points.

AUSTIN A tea party wave that helped sweep Lt. Gov.-elect Dan Patrick and like-minded Republicans into office is expected to breathe new life into conservative measures that Democrats and moderate Republicans have long blocked in the Legislature.

Near the top of the wish list of Patrick and many of the tea party Republicans who won seats in the Senate and House are proposals to grant private school tax credits, abolish in-state tuition for those in the country illegally and allow licensed college students to carry handguns on campus.

Also important to the incoming lawmakers including seven new GOP senators are new restrictions on state spending and tax cuts for homeowners and businesses.

Were likely to see a more partisan Legislature, one that pushes forward to the greatest extent possible with the conservative policy agenda, said Rice University political scientist Mark Jones.

Patrick will assume leadership of a Senate that will have more staunchly conservative members than it now has.

One of those Konni Burton of Colleyville, who will take over Democrat Wendy Davis seat will extend the GOPs advantage in the chamber to 20-11.

That is one less vote than currently required for a bill to be considered on the Senate floor the two-thirds rule that Democrats have used in the past to block legislation they oppose.

But Patrick and several GOP senators want a lower threshold that would bypass the Democrats and allow Republicans to act on whatever measures they choose. A battle over the rule could spark confrontation on the Senates first day in January. In addition, Patrick has vowed to appoint fewer Democrats to chair Senate committees.

Im going to appoint committee chairmanships that will help me get a conservative agenda passed for Texas, Patrick said earlier this year. It could be one, it could be two, it could be none.

Democrats have warned against such partisan moves, which run counter to decades of Senate tradition. But those warnings appear to be falling on deaf ears.
