Public testimony for the House committee didn’t start until around 2am Sunday, but lawmakers still advanced their restrictive voting bill on Sunday morning – roughly 24 hours after the hearing began. State senators also voted in favor of their sweeping proposal Sunday afternoon, teeing up full chamber votes in coming days.
The legislators’ overnight moves paralleled actions during the regular session, when lawmakers advanced elections bills while most Texans were sleeping.
I was suprised by this move, and yet not suprised at all. What better way to avoid pushback from the Democrats than to avoid speaking with them at all? It's these kinds of barely legal tricks which show how loose our legislative process really is.
Texas is heading towards a reckoning, if your in Texas make sure to make your voice heard on voting rights!!
Will anyone be able to vote in Texas!!
