Texas Democrats Flee State Over GOP Redistricting, Arrest Warrants Issued

Texas Democrats Flee State Over Redistricting Fight

In a bold move, Texas Democratic legislators have left the state in an attempt to prevent a vote on the controversial GOP redistricting plan. Their departure denies the House the necessary quorum for voting.

Republicans Respond with Arrest Warrants

Republicans have initiated votes on arrest warrants for the absent Democrats, escalating the already tense situation.

The Democrats argue that the redistricting plan would unfairly disadvantage minority voters and ensure Republican control. This walkout underscores the deep partisan divisions in Texas.

The situation remains volatile, and legal challenges are expected.
