NEW: Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed into law a new, deeply gerrymandered congressional map that disenfranchises voters of color for political gain. All voters deserve to be heard. This is an affront to our democracy.

Are you filing a lawsuit?
Republicans DO NOT CARE about Democracy
Republicans don’t care about anything other than their money power and opression its time to overthrow this tyrannical government constitutioncenter.org/the-constitu...
Adolph Abbott a proud America White/Christian Nationalist homophobe Just like his leader of the organized criminal cult and Gestapo Texans next year, although difficult, we ALL need to vote Turn Tex Ass back to Texas
Nuke Austin
They made several GOP vulnerable. They have lost Independents. I still think if they have anyone running against them they will lose.
God, we can only hope
They kicked a hornets nest no addressing the Flood Victim needs first. People are pissed. Even GOP got nothin nice to say about Abbott.
Spot on.
🤞🤞🤞
They were so thorough that they drew Jasmine Crockett's house into a District she doesn't live in. They're just sleazy AF.
Please sue him into oblivion.
He’d never “stand up” for democracy…
man i wish that oak tree had finished the job
Yep but uh they screwed themselves over cause apparently, they put republican districts into play for democrats 😂
😡
I’m just hoping that this will bite them in the ass in the next election. Creating more (nominal) red seats unavoidably made previously safe red seats more competitive. Even a small blue wave could result in a net loss of GOP seats in Congress,
Are you suing?
There are at least 2 lawsuits so far. Mark Elias’ group and the NAACP.
Hands Off!
An clearer explanation: 1 white vote = 3 latino votes 1 white vote = 5 black votes
Greg abbott deserves nothing less than to be wheeled down south of the rio grande into sinaloa cartel country and left there🤔🤬
This is an affront? This is a attack on our nation and dishonors the millions of folks who fought and died for our rights.
Absolutely. Abbott and Paxton are a vile team willing to harm anyone to stay in power. Paxton has personally bragged about tossing out "millions" of votes from Harris county on spurious grounds.
Interested to see how this turns out.
hopefully there is legal recourse for this
Fight this!!!!
Pleas do everything possible to stop these viscous ghouls. I know you all and others will try.
He should be wheeled off to prison where traitors belong.
Abbott is an affront to humanity
Texans need to revolt in mass!
Wouldn’t expect anything else from a deeply corrupted state
That disgusting disability.
And a blatant violation of the Voting Rights Act by disenfranchising black voters.
. REPUBLICAN PARTY - work for the Rich. (no rich taxes, no social programs, no regulation...) DEMOCRAT PARTY - work for the People. (tax rich, smart social programs, smart regulations...) "Vote Left Super Majority & Stop the Rich Far-Right"
Split Texas in two./
Are you suing Texas under voting rights laws?
Completely unsurprising. If Abbott thinks there’s any chance of any kind of gain for himself - political currency, campaign contributions, etc, he’s going to sellout Texas. Got $$$ from TX oil tycoons for the anti abortion law. Got $$$ from a billionaire in PA for school vouchers.
I hope he falls on the pen and leaks
And a heinous bathroom bill.
With luck, those diluted red seats in Hispanic areas...when Trump screws over more and more Hispanics...the Hispanic voters that switched over to Trump, will now vote Blue and this can blow up in their faces. Nov 2026 is a long time away and the Dems can work hard to win them back. I have a dream
Yep. What you going to do about it? You know the supreme Court will side with Texas.
Reminder to Texans: There are 17 state constitutional amendments up for vote in Nov 2025.
It disenfranchises white voters too. I'm losing my congressman whom i respect.
What a pathetic excuse for a human being Abbott has shown himself to be. Burning in hell will be too good for him.
Ok California, do your thing to offset that bullshit
What happens if 99% of the voters decide to vote democrat, independent or don't cast a vote for a republican candidate at a all, Then What?
So sue them! But it won’t be enough. Hope there are more folks in TX that see this as an affront to democracy and vote as such. But I am not holding my breath.
Why the hell did we have a civil war if they just want to revert to what we already settled with blood?
Texan here. I will not vote for any candidate from a party that thinks it is their right to choose their voters instead of the voters choosing their representatives. So straight blue until the map changes. Sorry @GOP
Welcome
Tue GOP are the scum of america
Texans should be as mad as hell, vote him out, he is becoming a dictator of Texas.
Someone needs to give that fucker a good push down the steps of the capitol.
California incoming. And hopefully a tree with better aim
Using this map, tell us more of the effects of “gerrymandering” plz.
California will respond. Calling all blue states governors to do the same
Time for the Texas flag to fly below Because Texas is no longer bold She has become a Lying King state It’s sad to she her, shriveled up with hate Purging rolls and gerrymandering to win Texas my Texas has come to an end!
In my opinion, this could backfire on him big time. That would be true justice.
Those who voted to do this at this time are pure evil. Democracy is for all of us not just some of us.
Nothing will change until enough Red Hat Fck Around Society members get mad enough over something to start voting blue. It’s literally the only way to break a gerrymander.
✅Kamala won ❌Cheato cheated 🚫He rigged the 2024 election Just like in TEXAS BECAUSE HES IN THE FILES EPSTEIN! RIGGING! NEW ELECTIONS NOW! ✅NO CITIZENS UNITED ✅A PAID HOLIDAY 🚩NEW ELECTIONS NOW! 🚩NEW ELECTIONS NOW! AMERICA WILL LIVE
Texas, get organized! go.bsky.app/VcoYkZK
No one could believe Beta lost in Texas… something really bad happened there
If I was a person of color in Texas, I'd be going door-to-door showcasing why this is bad for democracy and racial harmony and that real Americans stand up to tyrany.
The Missouri Governor has ordered a Special Session for redistricting today as he received notice from the White House to do so!!
Fellow Texans, don't allow this move discourage you from voting. It's intentional. Let this motivate us all to come out in forces and show Abbott we fucking tired of him and his criminal friends. If the winter storm, power surges, or old infrastructure doesn't make you vote, let this be a reason.
Organize buses 🚌. Make it a national night out.
☝️☝️🎯🎯☝️☝️
Voting Rights Act violated. Unleash the lawsuits!
Have you sued?
Came to ask same. Nothing on thier website yet, but I’m sure it’ll happen.
I donate monthly. Do you? We need to.
Yes I do! action.aclu.org/give/now
Me too. 😎
I like you, Citizen! 🩵💙🩵
Ditto. Twofold.
Greg Abbott is the biggest welfare recipient in the state of Texas
And Republicans care deeply about affronts to our democracy.
And perhaps we can reach out to those voters in texas who are saying “we didn’t vote for this” AND MAKE THE WHOLE THING BACKFIRE!!!!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
The Texas GOP was wrong to initiate this race-to-the-bottom with mid-decade gerrymandering. For Gavin Newsom and the CA legislature to follow them down into the craven muck proves that NEITHER PARTY can now be trusted with our support. New Leadership Now!!
My dream -based on the hatred of the gop, these awful policies and the horrendous future our kids will get..that the 5 seats GO THE WRONG WAY - OUR WAY! And in all the other bootlicker states Then Gavy gets the Cali seats and there you go-huge advantage to finish this on the correct side of history
LAWSUITS!!!
Everything about this dictatorship and painfully insipid regime is an affront. What can we do???
Abbott is a metastatic cancer
Taxation without representation
Abbott is a 🐖. No offense to pigs.
TX is weak.
Absolutely! Let all those voices be heard! 💙🇺🇸🌊🙋🏻💯🏳️🌈🤞💙
A rumor is spreading... The gerrymandering will not work in favor of the GOP. Trump has alienated his party. The redistricting will backfire and will actually elect MORE democrats.
Sue Sue Sue
Greg Abbott is an affront to democracy.
This was a declaration of war. White supremacy vs. constitutional democracy. And white supremacy has been crushing it. Just ask Jeffries and Schumer if they have ANY plans to stop the Trump Dictatorship. Nothing. The US has already fallen. We killed it ourselves. Stay safe ACLU. You will be raided.
Abbott and Paxton need to be arrested. These are crimes against individuals
Called get out and VOTE no matter how they change the law to cheat PEOPLE IN TEXAS JOIN TOGETHER TO VOTE THEM ALL OUT POWER TO THE PEOPLE not the so called MEGA GARBAGE.
Dear Texans , your vote and your voice have been silenced.
Always was
Yep :(
I look at him & think “do you even have any self awareness? You really need to get therapy for that anger you’ve got”.
Sue! Protest! Sue!
Thecus should just be a fuggin grid. And popular vote wins. That's the intention and purpose of an election by definition. Everything else is just corrupt fluff.
The republicans are traitors to the American people
No kidding, it Texas and he is a Republican.
~30% of registered voters stayed HOME for the last election. Since they did not find a way to vote, tRump's NAZI Regime and MAGATS are now exercising these repressions and unconstitutional acts.
I wish the Pope would show up in TX and let them know God doesn't bless evil.
It's going to be hilarious when voters are fed up and vote blue in red areas.
