Last week we witnessed the beginnings of a standoff between the dems and the Republican lawmakers in Texas. As the battle for voting restrictions continues across the country, certain states are making gains for the Republican party.
The Republicans have been working hard to advance two very important voting bills, which would call for greater election security.
Unfortunately, it can’t be easy. The dems refuse to have a say in any legislation that does not cater to their every need.
A group of dem lawmakers fled to Washington, D.C. to avoid voting on the GOP’s sweeping elections overhaul bills. By fleeing the state, they deprived the state legislature of the two-thirds quorum they needed to vote.
The proposed legislation would add new ID requirements for mail-in ballots, prohibit 24-hour polling locations, drive-through voting, and ballot drop boxes.
The dems love running from their problems… but Texas Gov. Greg Abbott was quick to call them out for their lack of responsibility, and criticize them for ignoring their duties.
Abbott insisted that the dems will face consequences, saying that “once they step back into the state they will be arrested and brought back to the Capitol and we will be conducting business.”
This is not their first walkout; in May Texas democrats prevented an earlier version of the voting legislation from passing…
It seems like the only thing the dems know how to do is throw tantrums and run away, the dems are just toddlers.
Gov. Abbott is tired of the chase but insists that these tactics won’t work. He told Fox News that he was prepared to hold out until “they step up to vote.”
Rep. Representatives are doing what they can to make the dems return and actually face this legislation head-on. They’ve authorized Texas state troopers to find and bring any missing legislators back to the Texas capitol.
Texas House speaker Dade Phelan (R-Beaumont) has also chartered a plane to sit in Washington and bring the absentee lawmakers back to the session.
The dems are trying to run out the clock, hoping they can get congress to pass federal legislation against voting restrictions before time runs out.
The Republican party just recently blocked one of the most ambitious voting rights legislation to come before Congress in generations, thoroughly putting the dems in their place.
To make matters worse, the mainstream media shows off the dems as ‘warriors’, when we know that if the Republicans were acting this way, the media would have a field day calling them out for dereliction of duty at the state taxpayer’s expense…
This long-standing battle is only dragging out the inevitable, it’s about time the dems saw some reason and made a decision for Americans instead of themselves.
DON’T forget to LOCK UP these TREASONISTIC Left Wing Traitors in PRISON . . . in the SAME CELL as the COVID19 ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. If we are going to have a “super spreader” event, then let it START with these Democrats! One Enlightened Patriot. Team Trump And His Allies 2020 – MAGA (WE’RE NOT going away!).
I agree the Dems. need to be out of their jobs for running away from their jobs. We need people that will stand for the American people.
Margaret I totally agree with you.
Biden is an IDIOT and Harris needs a KICK IN THE ASS!!!!
They are saying Covid is on the rise again in the north/northeast? Isn’t that where many illlegals are being dumped off? And no vaccine for them but TRUE AMERICANS have lost their jobs because they exercise their rights.
It has been reported they are bringing TB and other diseases in also.
THESE DEMOCRATS NEED TO LOSE THEIR JOBS, RETIREMENTS, AND PROHIBITED FROM EVER RUNNING FOR OFFICE AGAIN! aND THEY CAN MOVE TO WHERE THOSE ILLEGALS ARE COMING FROM. tHERE SHOULD BE PLENTY OF ROOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They are just like their “fearless cowardly and incompetent leader, CHEATER Joe Biden, hidden from we, the American voters”!!!!! Total anti-American policy and they call themselves Americans!!Dump them all in the 2020 elections!!!!!
They did this before and it didn’t work. Democrats have shown their incompetence. Can’t wait for next election voters will show them the door.
FIRST YOU’LL HAVE TO STOP THE INFLUX OF ALL THE CALIFORNIA COMMUNIST DUMMYRATS INTO THE STATE BRINGING THEIR LEFTIST POLITICS WITH THEM.
DON’T CALIFORNICATE TEXAS. ! ! !
While they are gone pass a ;aw that makes it a felony for a member of congress to miss more then three consecutive days without a proven illness.
then arrest them all and throw them in prison and replace them with republicans.
The Democrat Communist Party of America and all of it’s COMMUNIST OPERATIVES will be DESTROYED.
When the going gets tough, the Dems get gokng..to Washington to cry to Kamla..unreal !!
Texas Democrat House members are a joke.
Robert L. Kahlcke. I totally agree with you. The Communist Party’s presence in Washington, our entire Education System, Unions, the Media, Hollywood, Judicial System, FBI, CIA, Newspapers, Magazines like The Atlantic, CNN, MSNBC, Antifa, BLM. backed and funded through the Communist Party, need to be purged.
Man, this sh!t is gettin old! Fire em, I’m sure you could find replacements who would actually work for the people!!
Time to get rid of all dems nationwide please please
Nov 22. Please people!!!!!!!!!!
Your going to allow this to happen a second time??? Where is the leadership and I hope all the Democrats are put into jail this time. Enough of temper tantrums!!!
THEY NEED TO BE BROUGHT BACK TO DO THERE JOB IF THEY DON’T COME BACK TAKE AWAY THERE PAY AND FINE THEM. THEY ARE BEING PAID BY THE PEOPLE AND SHOULD REPRESENT THEM.
WHAT HAPPEN LAST TIME THEY PULLED THIS WALK OUT?
AN EXAMPLE HAS TO BE SET TO STOP THIS KIND OF ACTIONS
when are people going to wake up to the ploys they use to cheat,lie,and subvert all things right and legal? this party has subcummed to lies and evil in more ways than one.
This seems to be the Texas Democrats answer to facing a loosing battle to their Betters. I say they have abandoned the State Of Texas and should be replaced with Republicans!!!
In any other job if you don’t show up for work you get fired.
Abandaning their posts! They were “hired” to represent the PEOPLE by votes! Running when things they don’t like come up is the worst part of their gutlessness!
These C.S. scumbags should at least have the guts to RESIGN if they can’t stand up and vote!
But they would have to stop sucking on the tax payer tit and get a real job.
First, read the Constitution! Any voting bill passed by the House and Senate would be void as these bills would violate the Constitution. There are many clear and unquestionable sections in the Constitution and one of them is that ALL VOTING LAWS ARE THE RESPONSIBILIT OF THE LEGISLATURES OF THE SEPARATE STATES. The legislators from Texas who fled the state are actually violatingvtheir oaths off office and should be immediately recalled and removed from office under the Constitution of both the USA and Texas. Dereliction of duty is the true stain on the government of Texas!
Why cant these demorats be recalled back to Texas or fired from there job. What is the holdup. Gov. Abbott, fire these people or fine the hell out of them for not doing there job.
They need to be removed from office and have all of their pay stopped immediately. They are a bunch of yellow-bellied chickens. They are doing what all of the Democrats do ‘run’.
This is typi8cal of the Democrats. >They don’t protect and defend our state and federal constitutions. They want to change it to meet their needs. Both the State and Federal Government, all Democrats should be fired, without pay for their treasonous actions
VOTE THE BASTARDS OUT ! ! !
To bad they didn’t have plane failure.
DRAG THEM ALL BACK AND THROW THEM IN JAIL AND LOSE THE KEY.
POLITICS THE ONLY PLACE THAT YOU CAN HAVE A JOB AND NOT SHOW UP, NOT DO YOUR JOB AND NOT GET FIRED AND STILL GET PAID. SURE MUST BE NICE. RIDING THE GRAVY TRAIN WITH BISCUIT WHEELS.
