The Texas House of Representatives has passed a redistricting bill, paving the way for Republican-drawn maps that could net the GOP as many as five US House seats to be finalized in the coming days. https://cnn.it/4moDzT0

The opposition better start getting smarter, strategic and aggressive. Otherwise we will be in such a deep hole that we may never reclaim our democracy. The GOP politicians who are fascists or who are intimidated by fascists have planned this multiprong attack on our free elections for decades

Not surprised that so many people mistake basic redistricting every 10 years following a census, for what those seditious GOP sycophants are doing now. Take an elementary school civics course. Oh wait, there aren’t any.

It’s necessary for this to happen in Texas cuz the libsters stole a ton of districts, simply taking a pen and drawing new lines! ONLY Trump can do that. Meanwhile, ANY such efforts in California are pure evil, and anybody who tries it must be imprisoned! There is no hypocrisy here! Trump says so!

CA MUST beat them at their game or what's the point?? You can't just match them & play patty cake. You have to HURT them. You have to BEAT them. CA needs to take a min. 7 seats from the GOP because they WILL NOT consider changing to do the right thing unless we BEAT them. It's time to get proactive.

It’s unethical. It’s supposedly illegal to redistrict to racially discriminate, and less lawmakers are likely to be people of color as a result of this. It’s ugly and desperate and hopefully the courts will not let it stand.

if Republicans are so positive that redistricting is popular among Texans, put it to a public vote. To NOT give us the vote is indicative of corrupt intentions

Texas just re-gerrymandered districts they gerrymandered after the 2020 Census because they still lost elections. Maps drawn by Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe.
