We need national voting rights so that we can deal with governors and bullies like Governor Abbott.
If they steamroll us here in Texas, they’re just going to march all across this country until they have made it very hard for everyone to vote.
My response is the governor had 140 days of a regular session to take care of the people’s business. And he failed to do so, that’s the responsibility he’s going to have to bear.
