The bill was not approved by the Texas House by midnight, meaning it goes to a special session.
It’s one of the most impactful bills in a Texas legislative session labeled by Gov.Greg Abbott as the most conservative in a generation. It passed through the state Senate early Sunday morning after seven hours of overnight debate.
Later Sunday night, all Democrats walked off the House floor, preventing a vote on the legislation before its midnight deadline. The bill now goes to a special session. The Texas House of Representatives is in recess until 10 a.m. Monday.
“It’s Jim Crow 2.0,” said Sen. Carol Alvarado (D – Houston).

“It’s Jim Crow 2.0,” said Sen. Carol Alvarado (D – Houston).
The bill gives more power to partisan poll watchers to be close enough to see and hear what election workers are doing, to walk around freely and to file legal action if they feel they were impeded. It also adds restrictions on mail-in voting, requiring ID numbers to be listed or a pledge of not having an ID and would outlaw unsolicited mail-in ballot applications and create new felony punishments for voting violations.
“It is clearly aimed at people of color, at Black and Hispanic Texans,” said former HUD Secretary and San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro. “The Republican party is running scared because they know that this state is changing.”

“Fight for our right to vote everyday and twice on Sunday”….sounds like voter fraud Alex…. But when you yourself have used politiqueras to handle the mail in vote for you, not surprising. Why don’t we just have unlimited days of voting… that way you can get the lazy not interested voters out to vote for you? Can’t you see that people would rather not vote for crooks on ballots? Pendejos.
Las pinches politiqueras that makes a living stealing votes at the old folks home obviously hate this bill.

What's Lucios problem
Adelante, Alex!
Ser Mexicano es ser chingon!
Sounds to me like all these things are GOOD. Why wouldn't you want legitimate people to vote? If they are legal what's the problem? Unless you are for crooked elections?
I think South Texas democrats have a bonafide leader in Alex Dominguez as he has made more of an impact in the short time he has been in office than both Lucios and Rene Oliveira combined.
Stop using the excuse that this will hurt people of color, Black and Brown! You know damn well it will only hurt the corrupt politicians. They are fighting this because it is the illegal vote that has the corrupt politicians in office. Voter rules have been manipulated by those who have to cheat to win. Wake up everyone! Look at the political issues in this country. People are trying to make this country a third world country! Please, please don’t let that happen.
Dice el pelón, “let’s get it on” TELOSICO GUEY!

baboso impact where?
When Democrats are not allowed to cheat in an election they always pull the race card and scream voter suppression.
What a crock of shit.....
Get back to work Democrats or you will not get your paycheck.
Oh hey look..... Cheese Line.....
Democrats spent more money on the Cruz vs Beto US Senate Race than has ever been spent for that type of race and they still could not unseat one of the most disliked politicians in Congress and still could not win.
So bring it on dumbocrats pound more money down a rat hole, Texas is a Red State and always will be, oh unless you can cheat.
