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.

Texas Democrats abandoned their duties and fled to blue states with gross gerrymandering that has distorted our country's politics. That must change. In Texas, we’ll make sure voters can elect the candidate of their choice.

Texas House Democrats turned tail and ran away from a fight. And they are denying the state’s ability to pass flood relief for their fellow Texans. There will be legal action to remove these delinquent Democrats from office.

Running and hiding from a fight is un-Texan. Democrats claim they want to pass flood relief but won’t show up to vote. Texans deserve leaders who show up, not ones who abandon their duties.

Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around. Get involved with NDRC as they fight back:

Texans don’t run from a fight—they face it head on. These Texas Democrats that fled the state are not serving Texans. They are serving themselves. They forfeited their seats and are facing potential felony charges.

The Democrats have once again fled the state in a theatrical attempt to delay our redistricting vote in Texas. Their problem isn’t redistricting lines—it’s the voters’ minds they’ve lost. We have a quorum in the Texas Senate. We will continue to work on passing bills, including flooding and redistricting. I joined Laura Ingraham last night to discuss. Watch:

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

Instead of using a special session to help the thousands of flood victims in Texas, Greg Abbott is trying to rig the state’s congressional districts to disenfranchise Black and brown voters. We are standing behind Texas Democrats as they continue to fight this authoritarian regime.

Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick says Texas won’t back down to the Democrats’ fearmongering about the new Texas map: “As President of the Texas Senate, we are going to power through this. Whatever it takes, we are going to get it done. There is nothing they can do to stop us. And I challenge them: come back and do the right thing. Don’t run and hide because you have lost touch with the voters. Their problem is not redistricting lines. The problem is they lost the minds of their voters, who are moving toward the Republican Party all over the country.

Abbott has had every opportunity to address the needs of flood victims. However, the first vote of the session was not to fix the cracks in Texas’ emergency services, but to advance a redistricting plan designed to dilute the votes of Black and Brown Texans. Hear from Barbara Gervin-Hawkins on why she is breaking quorum.

House Democrats fled Texas and their duty to the people who elected them. Hardworking Texans would be fired if they didn't show up for their jobs. These derelict Democrats should face the same consequences.

Democrats are HOLDING UP critical flood relief and property tax reform for Texans—all for the sake of a political stunt. They need to get back to the Texas Capitol to represent the people who voted for them. Watch Governor Abbott’s full interview here:

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.
