Fox News
Texas State. Rep. Briscoe Cain slammed the dozens of Democrats who fled the state capital earlier this week and argued they left purely for political reasons.
"Anyone that reads it," Cain said about the controversial voting rights bill that prompted the lawmakers to flee to Washington, D.C. earlier this week citing claims that the bill would suppress voting rights, "realizes it doesn’t criminalize mistakes, it expands voting access, it expands hours, and protects our elections. That’s it." Cain said that ultimately Democrats will have no choice but to return to Texas and because of their "bad faith" actions there is "no reason to negotiate with them" and he hopes the legislature can pass an even stronger bill when they return.More Related News
