Gov. Abbott, House Democrats in DC spar over stalled bail reform bill
Gov. Abbott addresses bail reform
HOUSTON – On Wednesday, Gov. Greg Abbott continued to hammer members of the Texas House Democratic Caucus, who are breaking quorum in Washington, D.C.
During a visit to Crimestoppers of Houston for a ceremonial bill signing creating a new law cracking down on the illegal sale of Fentanyl, Abbott pivoted to the bail reform bill that is in danger of not passing.
“The safety of our communities are at risk,” he said in a press conference.
One of the governor’s priority pieces of legislation, the bill would make it harder for repeat violent offenders accused of crimes to get bail.
