Texas Republicans have locked Democratic Rep. Nicole Collier inside the state house chamber and refuse to allow her to leave.

They are requiring Democrats to sign “permission slips” and have a police escort in order to leave the chamber, and she refuses to sign it.

Collier: I refused to sign and so I was told that I was gonna have to stay here on the floor. They have locked the doors. The sergeants have been instructed not to allow me to leave until I have a permission slip.

A permission slip? A DPS escort? To leave your workplace? HELL NO!

No job should ever restrain someone against their will. This isn’t 1825. It’s 2025 and this MAGA authoritarian bullshit has no place in America!
