AUSTIN, Texas (AP) â The ranks of big corporations now criticizing GOP efforts to restrict voting access spread Thursday to Texas as measures that would reduce options to cast ballots and limit polling hours advanced in the state Capitol.

Public opposition from the airline came after a package of sweeping elections changes cleared the GOP-controlled Senate and, notably, a day after some of Georgiaâs most prominent corporate leaders came out publicly against a new election law after civil rights activists criticized their silence.
