GOV ABBOTT: DEMS WHO FLED FROM TX TO EVADE VOTING WILL BE ARRESTED
Texas Governor Greg Abbott told Fox News on Monday night that Democrats who fled the state to stop legitimate democratic processes from being carried out by the stateās legislature will ābe arrestedā the moment that they step foot back in the state and hauled to the state Capitol to do their jobs.
More than 50 Democrats fled the state on private planes so there would not be enough legislators present for a variety of bills to be passed, including voter integrity laws, bills that would protect girls from having to compete against biological males in sports, fund arrests of illegal aliens, clampdown on abortion, and crackdown on racist Critical Race Theory being taught in schools.
āIsnāt that the most un-Texan thing youāve ever heard? Texans running from a fight? Theyāre quitters,ā Abbott told Fox News. āItās like during a football game or baseball game, taking their equipment when theyāre way behind and just leaving the field. That is not the way that Texas, Texans do things.ā
āWe have special sessions that last 30 days, and the governor calls them and I will continue calling special session after special session, because over time itās going to continue until they step up to vote,ā Abbott continued. āThe thesis that they are operating under is completely false, because what the Texas law does, doesnāt hinder anybodyās ability to vote. And in fact, interestingly, what Texas is seeking to do is to add additional hours to vote. Texas has 12 days of early voting and the hours of which will be expanded. And we will ensure that hours are expanded on Election Day also. So their entire thesis is completely wrong. And compare early voting in Texas with early voting that we have in Delaware. Texas has 12 days of early voting. Delaware has zero days of early voting. Why am I picking on Delaware? Because that is where the President himself voted in the last election. And if anybody wants to talk about voter suppression, they should be talking about Delaware, not Texas.ā
Abbott noted that the lawmakers were effectively āusing a filibuster to flee the state of Texas to plead with the president to do away with the filibuster in Washington, D.C.,ā which he noted was āhypocrisy on its face.ā
āAnd thatās one reason why theyāre losing the arguments with regard to voting on this issue and other issues in the state of Texas,ā Abbott said. āBut I want to point this out for your viewers who are watching from Texas, because by the Democrats fleeing, theyāre also fleeing what weāre trying to achieve by cutting your property taxes and by making sure that we secure the border, by funding very important projects such as law enforcement in communities that have high crime. And so by fleeing the state of Texas, theyāre doing more than just appealing to the President. Theyāre using taxpayer money on this political junket to Washington, D.C., to prevent us from passing laws that will make our communities better.ā . . .
āWhat the law is, itās in the Constitution, and that is the house, the State House of Representatives who were here in the Capitol in Austin right now, they do have the ability to issue a call to have their fellow members who are not showing up to be arrested, but only so long as that arrest is made in the state of Texas,ā Abbott said. āThatās why they have fled the state. Once they step back into the state of Texas, they will be arrested and brought to the Texas Capitol, and we will be conducting business.ā

So can I assume how they were going to vote by these moves they had made? It looked to me like they were having a great party time playing hooky on the plane. I hope they stop the charades. What are they hiding?
Lord, Please draw the hearts of those who represent others toward Yourself. Please help them to turn from wrongdoing and turn towards You. See that justice is done, in whatever way You deem good. Let the representatives turn toward you and accept Your perfect ways. Please help representatives to faithfully obey their oath to represent others well. In Jesusā name I pray, Amen.
This is an excellent prayer!
