The Republican Party of Texas had taken decisive action and filed an official Amicus Brief with the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals supporting
the Attorney General’s authority to prosecute election fraud. For over 70 years, the Texas Attorney General’s Office has had the authority to prosecute election fraud across Texas. But now, that authority has been taken away. On December 15, 2021, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, the highest court in Texas for criminal cases, abruptly stripped the Texas Attorney General’s Office of all authority to prosecute election fraud. In doing so, the court broke with over a century of Texas Supreme Court precedent, the expressed will of the legislature, and, in the process, made Texas elections significantly less safe and less secure than other states. Democrats are crowing about this decision, calling it a “big win.” This decision is BAD for Texas and BAD for Election Integrity! |

Texans are now forced to rely on local prosecutors to investigate and prosecute election fraud. What this means is that in large urban areas and liberal strongholds, conservatives will have no path to pursue cases of election fraud. Rest assured that we will not stop fighting for transparency and integrity in our elections. Texas is the firewall in the 2022 midterm elections, which is why the Democrats are pushing so hard to disrupt and destroy Texas’ voter integrity laws.Our election integrity efforts are now more important than ever! We’ve already trained over 7,000 poll watchers and election workers this cycle, and now they are the only thing standing between free and fair elections and cheating in Texas elections. |
