Texas Dems on the Lam Call BS on Abbott’s Order to Hunt Them Down

Republican Governor Greg Abbott has demanded that Democratic Party state lawmakers who fled the state be arrested.

But the runaway representatives told the Daily Beast that Abbott does not have the power to back up his threat.

More than fifty Texas House Democrats skipped town on Sunday in an effort to block a vote as Republicans look to redraw congressional maps that would benefit them.

The Democrats’ exit on Sunday broke quorum, so the Texas House could not hold a vote. But Abbott warned that if lawmakers were not back in the state by the time the House reconvened on Monday, lawmakers faced being arrested.

That deadline came and went without Democrats returning, prompting Abbott to order their arrests.

Multiple Texas House Democrats who left the state told the Daily Beast, they were not fazed by what they insisted were empty threats.
