Texas’s House of Representatives voted on Monday to track down and arrest more than 50 Democratic legislators who left the state to block the GOP’s new congressional map. The House speaker said he would sign civil warrants, which would allow the sergeant-at-arms and state troopers to arrest the state legislators and bring them to the Texas state Capitol. The warrants would only apply within the state of Texas, since the legislators have fled to Illinois, New York and Massachusetts.

On Monday, Democratic Congressmember Greg Casar joined protesters in a march outside the Texas Governor’s Mansion.

Rep. Greg Casar: “Governor Greg Abbott is a coward for saying that our law enforcement should go out and arrest our local elected officials. This is America. This is a place where you’re not supposed to be sending law enforcement to go handcuff elected officials that you disagree with.”
