AUSTIN, Texas — As House Democrats left the Texas Capitol earlier this week, some decided to bring family with them.
"We expect to stay out of the state through at least Aug. 7, which is when this special session ends," Rep. Erin Zwiener (D-Kyle) said.
Zwiener brought her daughter, Lark, with her. On Twitter, Zwiener said the decision was a tough one, but the best one to make.
