Texas State Representative Jasmine Crockett, along with her Democratic Caucus, left Texas to block Republican’s voter suppression bill S.B 1 & H.B. 3.
I have been watching freshman state representative Jasmine Crockett (Twitter) for some time. Her interviews are always fact-based and on point. This legislator knows the law and is never afraid to use it.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett is one of the natural leaders in the Democratic Caucus that has vacated Texas to deny Texas Governor Greg Abbott and his cabal of voter suppressing Republicans. The caucus is in DC, imploring the U.S. Senate to do what is necessary to pass the For The People Act (S1). If they must create a carve-out to the anti-democratic filibuster, they must.
Rep. Crockett did not disappoint. She laid out the case. She made it clear the Democrats are in it for the long haul and that they will do all they can to protect the vote for every Texan and, with that, every American.
