Set the record straight what exactly we know what they’re saying is in the bill what is actually in the bill that they walked away from a great point because what is in the bill is completely different than what they are saying what kamala harris is saying what president biden is saying what’s in
The bill actually increases the number of hours that people have to vote in the state of texas in the state of texas we have at least 12 days of early voting and we are adding hours to those days and on top of that we are giving people time off from work
To be able to go vote bottom line we’re making it easier to vote in the state of texas by the way in comparison delaware the state that president biden votes in has exactly zero hours of early voting if anyone wants to go after a state that’s engaging in a
Voter suppression because of lack of time to vote early it should be people going after delaware not the state of texas that said glenn there is one thing that we are doing in the state of texas and that is we are making sure that we tighten the reins on
Mail-in ballots that can lead to voter fraud and it’s not me saying that it is a federal judge appointed by barack obama in corpus christi texas who wrote in a legal opinion that voter fraud occurs quote in abundance as it concerns male imbalance we know texans know there is fraud in male
Imbalance in the state of texas it must be fixed and that’s one thing that we are trying to do but that said all of these claims and oh we’re denying people the right to vote yadda yadda are completely false i i have to tell you governor i
I i don’t know what to do with the lies anymore you know it used to be you got to watch their language carefully they’re just out and out lies now that are being being said and most americans agree with even democrats voter id uh most people agree with hey
Let’s just make sure that all of the real ballots count and we make sure no fake ballots or distorted ballots are counted i every american should agree with that and that’s exactly what texas is achieving but let’s go back to the first point that you made and that is the lies
When democrats do not have truth on their side they resort to one single word and that is racism they say that texas is being racist by doing this and you talked about voter id so texas implemented voter id uh almost a decade ago and when we went through that fight
Uh what word did they use racism that texas is engaging in racism this is going to hurt people of color yadda yadda guess what after texas imposed voter id requirements in the state of texas there have been more people vote more people of color who went to vote
Voting didn’t get harder it got easier and more abundant in the state of texas and so once again democrats have absolutely no legal standing other than to say oh racism racism racism and what they have done because they use the term so much it means that there really is no
Substance to the term anymore and it’s sad because real racism does exist and we should do everything we can to fight real racism but if somebody is always crying rape you don’t you stop hearing it’s like car alarms when car alarms first started i mean everybody car alarm would go off
Everybody would look now carl arms look there could be a guy standing there with a hammer and nobody looks at it they’re like oh whatever it’s somebody’s car alarm um the um the the the thing you said this week was that you were going to go in
And you will arrest them when they come in uh when they come back to texas hey is that a is that a is that a real promise will you really arrest them when they come back into the state yeah let me explain how this works and so whenever there is a
Break of quorum which is what has happened now meaning that there is not a sufficient number of people who were showing up to the texas house of representatives for the texas house to engage in business whenever there is a quorum break like that the house issues what’s called a
Call on the house and when that happens the sergeant-at-arms is authorized to work with the texas department of public safety to you can call it arrest apprehend whatever you want to call it uh any of the members who are not in the texas house of representatives
And bring them to the texas house where they will be cabined in the texas house with no ability to leave the texas house chamber without a permission slip from the speaker and this is exactly what will happen the only limitation to it is one the fact that texas law enforcement
Officers do not have jurisdiction authority beyond our state boundaries and that’s exactly why they’re not up there in washington d.c putting these texas democrats who are on the run under arrest and bring them back to texas however once they do return to texas if they fail to show up to do the duty
That they ran for and that is to go to the capitol and cast votes uh if they don’t show up to the capitol uh they the texas department of public safety will be sent out to bring them back in so it’s not it’s not an arrest as
People think of an arrest it is they will pick you up and take you to the capitol and you can’t leave the capitol until your job is done right so it’s not a rest for a crime it’s an arrest to bring them back to the capitol
To force them to do their job now think about that are you being forced to do your job or your listeners being forced to do their job what would happen to your listeners if they decided well you know i don’t like the way things are going here and i’m not winning at my
My job here i’m going to walk off the job and still expect to get paid that’s exactly what these democrats are doing and just like your listeners if they walked off the job they would be fired they would lose their paycheck and that mark my words that’s exactly what’s going to happen to
These democrats who have fled the state of texas because texans do not approve of people especially the people they voted in office walking off the job and not doing their job have you seen any polls on this at all i mean i can’t believe
I mean i would be really angry if if the republicans walked out of congress right now i mean they’re not getting anything done they can’t pass anything but if they if they walked off the job i’d be really pissed at them is is that have you seen any pulling how
Is this going to work out for these guys so we have seen polling there’s an organization in texas called the texas public policy foundation and they did a poll on this within the last week showing that those members who walk off the job there is a great disapproval rating among all demographic groups
So i have it in front of me right now is texaspolicy.com in the title of it is uh texans oppose walkouts to avoid votes and that’s why i know for a fact uh that these members when they return and ask their constituents for support again uh it’s gonna look very very bad for
Them we saw this once before there’s history for this in the state of texas because when we were going through redistricting a decade or so ago the democrats fled the state once again they first went to ardmore oklahoma then they went to albuquerque new mexico to evade being arrested in the state of
Texas and things turned out bad for them at the ballot box and this time it’s even worse because there are so many issues that we have on this special session call in addition to election integrity we have property tax reform we can reduce your property taxes in texas
If the democrats in the texas house showed up there’s bail reform senator joan huffman said that since the democrats uh left uh and broke quorum initially in late may there had been five people in the state of texas murdered by people who were out on bail we’ve got
To fix a broken bail system in the state of texas so there’s going to be blood on the hands of the democrats who failed to show up and do their job
