Texas Democrats who fled the state as Republicans look to redraw the Lone Star State’s congressional lines pushed back on the GOP efforts during a press conference Tuesday morning.
The press conference, where the Democrats were joined by Democratic National Committee Chairman Ken Martin and Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL), comes on the eve of the 60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act to fight against the attempted redistricting taking place during a Texas special session. The special session is also being used to address the fatal floods in the state last month.
