Texas Democrats flee state in effort to block GOP-backed voting restrictions
Texas Democrats are showing some backbone.
They've fled the state in protest of Gov. Abbott's racist voter suppression bills. They've denied quorum to the legislature and they're grinding the special session to a halt.
These brave lawmakers are risking arrest to block GOP-backed voter suppression in Texas. We need to have their back. Will you add your name now to stand with them?
Thank you,

Jack xxxxxx,
Today, Texas House Democrats left the state and broke quorum to fight back against state Republicans’ continued attacks on Texas’ freedom to vote.
We need to stand with the brave lawmakers who are doing everything in their power to stop voter suppression in our state. Will you add your name now as a sign of support?
Republicans wasted no time during the legislative special session to begin trampling on Texans’ freedom to vote.
They’ve introduced multiple bills aimed at adding new identification requirements for mail voting, banning early voting options, and creating new criminal penalties for breaking election code while empowering partisan poll watchers.
Democrats are risking arrest by standing up for what’s right. We need to have their back. Please, add your name today.
Thank you,
Boot Texas Republicans
