Reform Austin
Voting rights advocates and Texas political leaders have organized a three-day march to fight against recent voter restriction efforts.
Among those involved is former Congressman Beto OâRourke, whose political action committee, Powered By People, is promoting the event.
The hope is the march will nationalize Texas voter issues, pushing Congress to protect voter rights on the national level, curbing Republican-led efforts to restrict voting in Texas.
Senate Bill 1, which takes strides to tighten voting in Texas through ending nighttime voting hours, banning thrive-thru polling, and banning absentee ballots from being sent out without request, has recently been left in the wings as Texas Democrats broke quorum recently.
