TX Republicans are so mad about the support that Alvarado received that they just voted to kill her filibuster before it even started, forcing a vote to pass their rigged map. They claimed she was using the filibuster to campaign & were “offended” to be kept there on a Friday night. These facist MFs

Texas House Democrats who have returned will have an around the clock DPS escort to ensure they return to the floor.
No plans for a second quorum break, so this is just so Republicans can run up the bill and charge Dems for DPS staffing. Dems can and should challenge these expenses in court

Ok… why can’t we submit public comment to the redistricting committee tonight? They meet at 5 to discuss legislation which could only include HB 4. Why is the public being shut out? #txlege

I keep seeing headlines that the Dems are coming back but I also heard a Rep LAST NIGHT tell a group that we won’t have quorum Friday so if anyone can weigh in I’d appreciate it.
