It's a nice story, but the bill was approved the very next day. Elections have consequences.

I really don't understand politics.

Umm, no. Where do you get your news? Fox?

Something similar will probably be passed, but SB5 is dead. Perry enacted a new session, giving them the month of July to make and pass a new bill.

I forgot to add, I like how you say "elections have consequences," as though Texas, or the United States were real functioning democracies.

She must have a bladder of an elephant.Kudos to her. Allthou a system that has filibustering at all seems retarded and grossly outdated.

Also xtians....

This is purely a political career move by her. Now she's in the news and people know her name. Nevermind the issue she's ranting about.

So, uh, who the fuck are you to go off on me like this? The bill didn't pass the next day, it passed a few days later. Either way her performance was ineffectual. Kinda like your arrogance.

And I say "elections have consequences" because elections have consequences. Because when Texas merely sits on it's ass as the elites erode rights, there are consequences.
