Kamala Harris Praises 'Courage' Of Texas Democrats Who Fled State On Private Jets

Vice President Kamala Harris praised Texas Democrats for showing 'courage' by fleeing the state to prevent a vote on Republican election integrity bills in the state legislature.

Over 50 Democrats departed Austin for Washington, D.C. on a pair of flights chartered by the Texas House Democratic Caucus at a price tag of $100,000, according to USA Today.

Harris went so far as to claim the Texas Democrats were on par with others who have given their lives for the right to vote.

VP applauds Texas Democrats for standing for the rights of all Americans and Texans.

Texas Democrats can block the voting bills by remaining out of the state through the end of the special legislative session, which could go as long as 30 days.

The Daily Mail reports that "The Democrats risk arrest" and are concerned state Republicans will "Send law enforcement officials, possibly including the Texas Rangers, after them."

If lawmakers remain in Texas, state law enforcement officials including the Texas Rangers can be dispatched to round them up and return them for votes.
