Episode description

Alise and Amanda are back to break down why Texas Democrats have left their state for the next 27 days to prevent a vote on sweeping voting rights restrictions. They explain how the lawmakers can be arrested if they return and how they plan to troll Congress while in exile. They break down a story of a Texas man arrested for accidentally voting three months before his parole ends, and how it highlights a key provision of HR1 allowing formerly incarcerated people to vote more freely.
