Down in Texas, Democrats don't have enough power to stop redistricting, so they fled the state to prevent a quorum. This isn’t the first time that Texas Democrats have pulled this stunt.
They did the same thing in July 2021 (and it was also about voting law):
In an unexpected twist, Attorney General Ken Paxton is investigating the funding source behind the political stunt, posting on X:
"I've just launched an investigation into a Soros-funded PAC for unlawfully funding runaway Democrats. If Texas lawmakers are bowing to the Soros Slush Fund rather than the will of the voters, Texans deserve to know."
From CBS News:
"In a news release Thursday, Paxton announced the investigation into TMP, one day after launching a separate probe into Powered by People, a PAC founded by O'Rourke himself. Paxton claims both groups may have violated state laws due to unlawful financial coordination, potential bribery of Democratic legislators who fled Texas to break quorum, and illegal fundraising activities."
Are there consequences for abdicating your responsibility as an elected official?
That's really the question. Doesn't seem like there are...
