The chairman of the progressive coacus Greg Kassar warns that the transition to the Texas Congress areas will undermine democracy in the state of the lone star and abroad.
President Trump and his republican associates know them “One big beautiful bill”Is a polling miseerably with an electorate that, by most accounts, a reason it when the government guts Medicaid and anti-hunger programs in order to fund tax cuts for billionaires. LEGISLATIVE EFFORT COULD SPEL DISTER FOR THE PARTY’S EFFORY ITS NAROROL OF THE US HOUSE IN THE 2026 MIDTERIAL Progressive Caucus Chair Greg Casar (D-TX) Emergency situations to avoid voter accounting next year – and it is focused around the state of the lonely star.
Trump has Pressure in Texas To move fast-time next week-to overcome the district lines to dramatically reduce the number of democratic constituencies in the state. If the president’s scheme is successful, the Democrats can lose as many as five places they occupy in Texas.
Cassari talked Nation The fact that he goes to the Map for Voting Rights in Texas, where he notes, Gop Gerrymandering is already serious: “Now it is 12 Democrats and 35 Republicans, with one vacancy, in a state that (republican senator) Ted Cruz could not even get 51 percent of the vote in 2018.” Casar warns that if the Republicans leave with the radically remodeling Texas Congress, to prefer GoP and even more to protect Trump, this model will quickly move to other red states to attack the voting rights.
How great the threat to US democracy and voting rights is Trump’s Texan scheme?
This is a five -year fire for the rights of voting and democracy across the country. In my opinion, this is the biggest threat to our democracy now that no one is talking about.
It is not just about any election. Texas already has a deep and illegally racial card of Congress. Donald Trump demands to put this racial card on steroids.
Current Issue
There is a significant discussion on whether Trump and Republicans will find a way to ruin the 2026 election cycle. Why is it acting now?
Trump has just ended to promote the bill to snatch 15 million Americans from their medical care, and all paid for reducing the taxpayer. He knows it is deeply unpopular. He does not want him to be held accountable for it. He also does not want him and his family to be held accountable for his corrupt and illegal business affairs.
IF HE CAN’T WIN The Election (Under Existing Maps), He Wants to Rig The Rules of the Election by Suppressing The Vote Of Texas Voters Nobody has Seen Before, and then getting the supreme courage to Rubber-Stamp it in the dead of night to allow for even further gerrymandering and voter suppression beyond texas
What you say is that the rehabilitation of the Congress County cards in Texas can become a template to create a variety of new places at home that will succumb to the Republican benefits. If Republicans are successful, they could save Congress control, even if most voters want to complete this control.
This is true. What they say in Texas is mostly (packaging democratic voters into a handful of districts) or dividing them illegally into small strings and thus spread their voting power.
Trump wants to return us until 1965 to Medicaid. And now he wants to take us to 1965 by voting. (Ed. Attention: The 1965 voting law must be protected from racial discrimination in the field of voting. Despite the fact that his powers were heavily undermined by the conservative majority in the US Supreme Court, some defense remains, especially against the breeding rights for historically insufficient communities. The fear of Kasar and many others is that the Supreme Court can allow Texas to further destroy these defense.)
This is a retreat from past practices, even for Republicans, isn’t it?
Yes. Usually, the Red States have some restrictions on the right side of Hermanding. Usually they are limited by the heads of republican congresses, who want their counties to remain the same, so they are not too vulnerable in the elections. And, too, while most of the voting law was stretched, the Republicans were not ready to completely ignore it.
These were two borders on the most extreme forms of racial, right germander. Trump goes “without restrictions”. He says, “Sub even the neighborhoods and the district of the Republican Congress members. Screw each part of the voting law.” Trump ignores any part that remains from the voting law and says it first about Trump’s defense. And this is what we are going to get at the Texas Legislative session next week. And the question is: will the Republicans finally find the foundation when Trump is running out of their own areas and electoral futures? And will the Texas Democrats mobilize and will the Democrats mobilize across the country because this is a nationwide issue of voting?
It looks like Trump wants to move fast on this – to get cards long before the 2026 campaign.
It’s about Trump who wants to prevent any accountable for himself.
As we learned in 2018, when a democratic wave took place during the Trump’s first administration, it created an opportunity for the Democrats of the House of Representatives to investigate Trump’s corruption and start interfere with Trump’s worst abuse. Trump doesn’t want it to happen again. Thus, he threatens the Texas republican member of the congress and republican legislators, and tell them to ruin their own constituencies, suppress their own voters, engage in this mad, unprecedented level of germanding, and ultimately break what is left of the voting law. These Texan Republicans must decide whether the interests of their constituents and their own electoral interests should be represented, or it is just Trump’s water boys.

Well, what we saw in very many cases, the congressman …
I know they often have no basics and just decide to be waterboys.
If the Republicans in Congress and the legislative bodies go with this, it can greatly undermine the democratic prospects in 2026.
Two key assumptions that have taken the idea that we have huge opportunities in 2026: one that Trump does not run over our own republican leaders. And, two, this section of the second voting law will follow.
Trump disputes these assumptions. He says he does not care whether he threatens or makes more vulnerable, his own republican members.
And, two, (Trump and Republicans) say they are ready to switch to unprecedented length to stab communities that are of interest in accordance with the voting law.
If Trump does these two things and makes them successful, then you are right, we could finish the extremely unfair and falsified electoral system in 2026. And, if we do not reflect, with everything we have, if we do not admit that it is a five -dimensional fire, we give Trump an open strip to make these two things.

Voters do not adjust because they don’t care. They are configured because they were exhausted by a false election sold both parties and tired of invalidity.
Progressive politicians must take on the court expansion or voters to promise their support for other candidates who will.
The President may destroy the Ministry of Education, the court accepted the key power of the congress – and gave it to Trump.
