This fight is not over, but kudos to the Democrats in this case for walking out to defeat the bill in this instance.

On and on and on it goes...Republicans doing everything in their power to invent reasons (voter fraud) and make laws (gerrymandering, shutting down voting sites, limiting hours and days of availability, making mail in voting impossible etc.). Why don’t we just call them on it? They want to strike blacks, the poor and every democrat voting person off the list of voters in this country. Isn’t that what all their mechanizations are about? Im sick of all this game playing and ‘make believe’ voter fraud. The reasons are clear.

Devo gives us a plan of action for dealing with false corporate supporters. Judd, Black Voters Matter, etc must call these liars out and expose their two faced agendas.

When a problem comes along

You must whip it

Before the cream sits out too long

You must whip it

When something's going wrong

You must whip it

Now whip it

Into shape

Shape it up

Get straight

Go forward

Move ahead

Try to detect it

It's not too late

To whip it

Whip it good

When a good time turns around

You must whip it

You will never live it down

Unless you whip it

No one gets away

Until they whip it

I say whip it

Whip it good

I say whip it

Whip it good

I'm glad that the bill was stopped, at least temporarily. However, there is zero doubt that the Republicans will revive this odious legislation as soon as they possibly can.

These blatant, flagrant voter suppression laws promulgated across America are reprehensible and completely against what our country purports to be founded - so sad and depressing.

Texas: building a budding authoritarian government in plain sight. Are there any good Republicans left? Rhetorical question...

I am sure Stephen Miller called the Governor with his suggestions. LoL. The Miller version of immigration applied to the state legislature staff and elected official. @GOP is a murderous bunch. No jugular they won't attempt to sever.

We are living Game of Thrones 2021. Next they will throw children from the UT bell tower.

Horrible situation, but Bravo! to the Democrats to block it.

Judd, your headline is misleading. The legislation isn’t defeated, it’s only been delayed.
