    The opposition party decided not to lend legitimacy to a session planned to restrict voting rights, so here we are.

    Texas governor threatens to arrest Democrats who blocked voting law by fleeing state

    Texas Democrats have become outlaws, fleeing the state as Republican colleagues and Gov. Greg Abbott threatened to arrest and confine them in a dramatic battle over voting rights.

    Late Monday, more than 50 Texas Democrats flew to Washington, D.C., breaking quorum during a special session of the state legislature and effectively stalling Republican colleagues’ proposed voting restrictions.

    “We can’t hold this tide back forever. We’re buying some time,” said Rep. Chris Turner, the Texas House Democratic leader, pleading with congressional Democrats to pass a national voting rights bill before the proposed Texas laws are passed.

    Obstructing legislation by sending an email that says "I filibuster" = Okay

    Obstructing legislation by leaving the state = DEMOCRATS BAD

    Fascist Abbutt deputizing every citizens into his forced-birth Schutzstaffel

    Lawsuit targets Texas abortion law deputizing citizens to enforce six-week ban

    Abortion rights advocates and providers filed a federal lawsuit in Texas on Tuesday seeking to block

    a new state law empowering individuals to sue anyone assisting a woman with getting an abortion,

    including those who provide financial help or drive a pregnant patient to a clinic.


    A dozen states have passed laws banning abortion after about six weeks of pregnancy.

    But the Texas law, set to take effect in September, goes further by

    incentivizing private citizens to help enforce the ban -

    awarding them at least $10,000 if their court challenges are successful.


    Even religious leaders who counsel a pregnant woman considering an abortion could be liable,

    Sometimes in life you have to hunker down and weather the storm. Did you want Abbott to come and hold your hand during the freeze? Are you aware of the legislation he has passed since the freeze?

    By law, they can be held in jail for up to 48 hours after their arrests for failure to uphold their oaths of office and failure to do their jobs.

    So what is going to guarantee outages like the one that happened in February from happening again?

    In your own words.
