Right now, Texas Republicans are shoving through redistricting maps BEFORE VOTING ON A SINGLE BILL to address the deadly flooding in Texas's Hill Country. I tried to help them set their priorities straight and choose flood victims over political games. They chose politics.

Let's set the record straight: Congress has never conditioned disaster aid. It’s immoral and un-American for Congressional Republicans to use the pain and suffering of disaster victims to try to jam through their political priorities.

Texas has every right to redraw district lines to represent ALL voters. Democrats turned their backs on Texans. They fled and abandoned both the redistricting fight and flood victims. That is un-Texan.

Marc Elias: "What the Republicans are doing in Texas is not mid-cycle redistricting. It is not even gerrymandering. They already gerrymandered this map...Every Democratic state that is controlled by Democrats needs to be looking right now at redrawing their maps beyond the five seats that Republicans are gaining in Texas."

Gutless Greg Abbott and the Texas Republicans refuse to have a real conversation on flood relief until they pass Donald Trump’s rigged maps. Senate Dems walked out today because it’s time to stop playing political games and get shit done. #txlege

The Texas Senate took up an unconstitutional redistricting bill, so my democratic colleagues and I walked out in protest. Politicians shouldn’t choose their voters—voters should choose their elected officials. Texas Democrats are fighting to protect your voice and focus on real issues like flood relief and disaster preparedness, not a mid-decade power grab that silences Texans. #txlege

Why are there cars in line for miles and miles? P. TERRYS Burger Stand is a Fast Food BURGER restaurant similar to "In-n-Out" (they only have them in Texas). This new location in Round Rock Texas donated 100% of its proceeds to the flood victims. 100%! Everyone lined up and some waited hours just to help donate money and support the Texas Hill Country. Texans Helping Texans 🙌 👏

Lawmakers in Texas called a special session in order to redraw the maps in their favor Republicans have deprived people of a doctor and now they're trying to doctor the voting maps. That's why we need to pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. Via Senator Reverend Raphael Warnock

Texas Republicans rammed their gerrymander through. Now some are realizing they may have handed themselves a few seats in the House, but put others at risk. Rigging maps doesn’t always go as planned. Now it’s on us to fight alongside Texas Dems and take those seats back.

Holy shit. Not only did Republicans in the Senate BLOCK a Bill protecting Medicaid, they also torpedoed Sen. Ossoff’s amendment to protect CHILDREN’S and MATERNAL health care through Medicaid. This is pure EVIL. Republicans are not here to help any person in America. They have blocked every single bill that would help Americans, they have approved every single bill to help corporations and 1%. Why isn’t this a BIGGER story?? #DontCutMyMedicaid

Texas Dems Just Fled to Save Democracy—GOP Will Stop at Nothing to Win. Here's How To Help: “Republicans will do anything to win. When I was a Republican—hell yeah, that was me.” So Texas Democrats did something dramatic: more than 50 lawmakers fled the state to deny the GOP the quorum needed to pass a Trump‑backed redistricting bill designed to add five new Republican‑leaning congressional seats. It’s a bold act of defiance in the face of threats: Governor Abbott warned lawmakers to return or face removal from office, potential arrest, and daily fines, an escalation straight from Trump's fascist playbook. But these lawmakers said: “Come and take it.” They called Abbott’s maneuver a corrupt power grab that sacrifices flood recovery and voting rights on the altar of partisan advantage. This isn’t political theater—it’s a stand. Share if democracy matters more than dominance. What’s the next move? Court challenge? National response? #politics #republicans #democrats #texas #politicalnews #news #redistricting #vote

🚨 DEMOCRATS IN FULL PANIC MODE 🚨 Republicans are gaining ground in key states thanks to redistricting fights, while Dems are sweating bullets over the midterms. They’re nervous as hell — because new maps could hand Republicans a massive shot at flipping the House and Senate. Two back-to-back blows just hit them hard… and now this: On Friday, the Virginia Supreme Court just INVALIDATED the state’s congressional maps that heavily favored Democrats. Those rigged maps were set to give Dems 9 out of 10 seats. Gone. Fair maps incoming. Momentum is swinging hard toward Republicans heading into the midterms.

Texas Republicans are fueling culture wars based on lies. They tried to lie about a school in MY DISTRICT… but I didn’t let them. If you're going to attack Texans, you better have your facts straight.

🚨THIS RIGHT HERE: Hakeem Jeffries just OBLITERATED Republicans on redistricting strategy and says Democrats are just getting started. He slammed them for spending years aggressively gerrymandering districts across the country. “Republicans have concluded that they need to cheat to win... we’re not gonna unilaterally disarm, not now, not ever.” “And this redistricting war is just getting started.”

Jeffries: Trump has ordered Texas Republicans to try to produce 5 additional seats. I have no expectation that they are going to try to show any political courage. Texas Republicans are likely going to continue to act like political punks and bend the knee.. in doing so, they will jeopardize their own electoral careers..

The NAACP and Hakeem Jeffries are calling on Black athletes to boycott entire states like Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, and South Carolina over redistricting. They want these young men to forfeit their education, NIL earnings, and professional careers over politics. They are using young Black men as chess pieces and asking them to destroy their lives. These people are sick and twisted.
