/ The quorum busting Democratic lawmakers have shut down the Texas Legislature s special session in order to keep a Governor Abbott-backed voter restriction bill from being passed. Abbott says he will keep calling special sessions until it is passed. The current special session ends on August 7th and Abbott says the next one begins on August 8th. What’s the record for special sessions? Between 1989-1990, Governor Bill Clements called six special sessions of the 71st Legislature. Abbott is trying to gain the upper hand in spinning the story of the quorum bust while also defending the voter restriction bill. He was on FOX News Sunday and told host Chris Wallace that Texas voting is easy and compared Texas voting access to another state. Abbott is not alone in his Delaware bashing. Lt. Governor Dan Patrick has also taken swipes at Delaware.
