Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton Files Quo Warranto Against Democrats
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a quo warranto petition in the Texas Supreme Court to compel Democratic lawmakers to return to work. The legal maneuver could allow Governor Greg Abbott to declare seats vacant and appoint replacements if the lawmakers do not return within 48 hours. Paxton is also seeking to jail Beto O'Rourke for allegedly violating a court order regarding fundraising for the fleeing Democrats.
