Texas Republicans Are Now One Step Away From Completely Silencing Texas Voters

AUSTIN, Texas – Texas Democratic Party Chairman Kendall Scudder issued the following statement on the select committee on Donald Trump’s redistricting advancing their map out of committee on partisan lines 12-6:

“If Texas Republicans go forward with passing this map and silencing voters on behalf of Donald Trump, then we'll fight them in court and at the ballot box. Democrats must fight this Trump power grab through any means necessary, and blue states across the country should use this as a signal flare to start carving up their own states and make these authoritarian wannabe Republican lawmakers regret ever opening up this redistricting discussion in the first place.”
