Dem lawmakers leave Texas to thwart corrupt Republican scheme

THE GUARDIAN: It's really theft: the Republican plan to redraw Texas maps - and grab more power.

In a courageous act of defiance, heroic Texas Democratic lawmakers have left the state to deny Republicans the ability to pass a corrupt plan to redraw voting maps demanded by Donald Trump.

This isn't a drill. Trump and his Republican allies are trying to steal 5 congressional seats to rig Congress for years to come. In response to their patriotic stand, these lawmakers are being threatened with arrest and fined $500-a-day – and they are legally banned from using campaign accounts to pay the fines.

Their ability to stay the course is CRITICAL.

The Houston Chronicle reports that Beto O’Rourke’s organization, Powered by People, is providing the Dems with financial assistance with "every dollar pitched in going towards helping the Texas Democrats remain out of state" so they can continue to stand strong against Trump's power grab.
