Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is calling on the “full faith and credit� clause of the U.S. Constitution, which says states should typically honor each other’s judicial proceedings.

Casar said the proposed congressional map was drawn by Trump's administration and threatens "millions of Texans' voting rights."

The Texas attorney general accused the organization, Powered by People, of running a financial influence scheme that convinced Texas Democratic lawmakers to travel out-of-state, leaving the Legislature in limbo.

More than 50 Texas House Democrats left to stall a Republican-backed redistricting plan, effectively shutting down legislative business at the Capitol.

The case of Senator E.L. Alford, who was expelled from his seat in 1870, provides lessons for today.

The two lawmakers, Reps. John Bucy of Austin and Ann Johnson of Houston, are among the group that fled the state to prevent a Republican-backed redistricting plan from coming to a vote.

Gov. Greg Abbott says the dozens of Democrats who fled the state to block a redraw of the state’s congressional maps could also be charged with bribery or be removed from their seats. Ethics experts question his threats.

Republicans in the Texas House have released a proposed new redistricting map that seeks to fulfill President Trump's desire to add up to five additional GOP congressional seats in the state.

President Trump is seeking to pick up at least four, potentially five, Texas congressional seats for Republicans in a midterm election cycle that ordinarily would favor the Democrats.

The order is the latest victory for civil rights groups claiming discrimination and intimidation leading up to the 2022 midterms, but history indicates the case is unlikely to be resolved before voters head to the polls.
