The Supreme Court of Texas has ordered the top Democrat in the Texas state legislature to respond to a lawsuit filed by Gov. Greg Abbott that seeks to remove him from office. This is in response to the flight of the Democrats to avoid providing a quorum for the redistricting vote.

In an escalating battle over Texas redistricting, Mr. Abbott filed the lawsuit on Tuesday, accusing state Rep. Gene Wu of renouncing constitutional mandates “by fleeing the state of Texas to break quorum, obstruct legislative proceedings and paralyze the Texas House of Representatives.”

The Democrats fled to Illinois, New York and Massachusetts to thwart a plan by the GOP-led Texas legislature to approve a new congressional district map.

Beto and his radical left group, Powered by People, are under investigation for bribing the lawmakers to leave town.
