Unfortunately she had three penalties under the Texas filibuster rules and just lost her ability to continue the Filibuster. With the Super majority this is all over.

Challenge upheld; filibuster all but over | www.statesman.com

I've been following this on Twitter exclusively, mainstream news is straight up lying.

Abortion is so fundamentally wrong. My God, are there any pro-life folks left out there?

As far as I'm concerned, the Republicans who are in the State Capitol tonight have just lost their privileges to call themselves Texans, because they have tarnished the State and that's unacceptable.

And I'm not a Democrat, but right is right, and they're so far out of touch with reality that it's embarrassing.

The author of the bill in question is a WOMAN......not only was that a shock--she's incredibly ignorant! I can't think of enough bad words to describe her!

Hard to believe someone like that is drawing a hefty salary off taxpayers in Texas and can actually make such an ignorant remark. Sometimes I think they are so use to running their mouths, just to hear their own voices, they don't even bother to think before they start babbling.
That's probably right....it still just FLOORS me.
