Members of the Texas House Democratic Caucus will meet with Abrams at 10 a.m. and the Clintons at 11 a.m. Both meetings will take place virtually, over Zoom.
Texas Rep. Senfronia Thompson spoke of a personal history of voter suppression in Texas, saying her grandparents had to save “pennies and nickels” to pay a poll tax. Thompson herself had to pay a poll tax the first time she voted, she said. Thompson responded to Republican members of the panel, who suggested, sometimes forcefully, that the state representatives should be back at the special session in Texas — with Rep. Scott Franklin of Florida later calling them "a bunch of spoiled cowards."
In interviews, the state Democrats said the meetings with the former president, the 2016 Democratic nominee and Abrams come at a critical time. After more than two weeks of frenzied activity —— lobbying efforts on Capitol Hill slowed this week as the Senate turned its attention to working out a bipartisan infrastructure deal. Some members have also said they are frustrated that they haven't yet been able to secure a meeting with President Joe Biden.
Oh no I thought we were done with the Clintons. Yes get the FBI, DOJ, etc. over to get Hillary‘s computer and text messages. I’m sure the families of those killed in Bengazi would like a go at them!
