‼️Breaking: The Texas House passes a racially gerrymandered congressional map designed to silence Black and Brown Texans and cement power for Trump-aligned extremists.

This bill now heads to the Senate and inches dangerously closer to Gov. Greg Abbott’s desk to be signed into law.

Fierce debate is expected over the legislation, which led Texas House Democrats to leave the state earlier this month, bringing the House to a standstill.

If passed by the House today, the legislation attached to the map will still need one more procedural vote before proceeding to the Senate.
