The Democratic lawmakers in Texas are trying to stop Texas from enacting voting laws that are very restrictive and will disenfranchise large swaths of voters in the Lone Star State. The last ditch effort to block these laws may or may not be successful but at least the electorate their elected representative are fighting back again voter suppression. America needs to encourage more people to vote, not take that right away from people or make it more difficult due to non existent ‘voter fraud’.
