AUSTIN, TX – The Texas House of Representatives finally passed a bipartisan voter integrity bill after House Democrats tried every trick in the book to stop the measure including fleeing the state for weeks.
Reporters in Austin say SB-1, the voter integrity law, passed the house by a vote of 80 - 41 Friday morning after two special sessions and endless attempts by Democrats to derail the process knowing all along they didn't have enough votes to stop the legislation.
Republicans worked through the regular session and two special sessions to pass the legislation which will require a photo ID for mail-in ballots and bans 24-hour early voting and drive through voting among other measures to ensure voter fraud and ballot harvesting no longer takes place in Texas.
The bill now goes to a conference committee of House and Senate members before going to the Governor who is expected to sign it into law.

That was on a federal level. Not just state. Demonrats are the plague

PermalinkThey have more cases and a horrible government in place. Texas is by far the better state to reside in. Maybe you should move to CA since you hate it here?
