Texas Democrats To Leave The State To Block Trump Gerrymander

In a bold move reminiscent of a political game of chess, dozens of Texas Democrats are preparing to leave the Lone Star State to thwart Republican efforts to secure a quorum in the House. The Republicans aim to push through a mid-decade redistricting map that critics have branded as a gerrymandered scheme masterminded by none other than Donald Trump.

According to Politico:

Dozens of Texas Democrats are set to evacuate the state during a special session scheduled for Sunday afternoon, making a last-ditch effort to derail a redistricting initiative imposed by President Donald Trump, as indicated by two insiders familiar with the situation.

…

“Breaking quorum is an extreme step. It should be a last resort,” stated State Rep. James Talarico in an interview with POLITICO last Tuesday. Talarico was among the 50 Democratic legislators who previously fled the state in 2021 in protest of an election bill. This time, they are reportedly heading to Illinois, a Democratic stronghold where the governor has accused Texas Republicans of rigging the redistricting process ahead of the 2026 elections.

Upon their arrival in Illinois on Sunday, they will ignite a standoff with Governor Abbott in this high-stakes redistricting confrontation.

Such a departure is not taken lightly; fleeing the state carries the risk of fines and potential arrest for lawmakers. However, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker has pledged to safeguard the Democrats from any retaliatory actions that Governor Greg Abbott and his Republican counterparts might attempt.
