Скачать или смотреть Texas Democrats Face Civil Arrest Warrants 😠🏛️

In Texas, tensions are escalating as the state House moves to take action against Democratic lawmakers who fled the state to block a controversial redistricting plan. The Texas House speaker confirmed that civil arrest warrants have been signed for Democrats who didn’t show up to the special session. The lawmakers’ absence stems from a bold move made on Sunday to prevent Republicans from redrawing the state's congressional map, a plan that many say is politically motivated. The redistricting plan, backed by President Donald Trump and led by Texas Republicans, is set to reshape the state's districts, potentially eliminating five Democratic U.S. House seats. The goal is to shift the balance of power in favor of the GOP heading into the 2026 midterms. However, the civil arrest warrants for the absent lawmakers are likely unenforceable outside Texas, meaning they won’t have much of an impact if the lawmakers are out of state. But Governor Greg Abbott has taken a tough stance, previously threatening to remove and replace lawmakers who miss the session, calling their absence a 'forfeiture of office'. With the special session scheduled to last only 30 days, the Texas House will reconvene tomorrow, but the clock is ticking. If they don’t reach a quorum soon, the session could end by August 19th, potentially giving Republicans a slim chance to push through their redistricting plan. #Texas #Democrats #ArrestWarrants #GOP #GovernorAbbott #SpecialSession
