Texas Democrats staged a walk out on Sunday night to protest a voting bill and now the governor tweets he will veto funding for the legislative branch which includes salaries for members of the legislature and their staff.
The bill, if passed by the state Senate and ultimately signed by Abbott, would ban drive-thru voting and impose state felony penalties on public officials who offer mail-in voting applications to voters who do not request them.
It would also prohibit 24-hour voting, which was used by more than 100,000 voters in the 2020 election in Harris County, where President Biden won with about 56 percent of the vote.
