得克萨斯州民主党离开州 阻止共和党重新划分选区计划 引发法律威胁 Texas Democrats leave state to block Republican redistricting plan, sparking legal threats.

得克萨斯民主党人为了阻止法定人数而逃离该州,目的是阻止共和党起草的国会地图的通过,该地图可以取消多达五个民主党众议院席位。 Texas Democrats have fled the state to prevent a quorum, aiming to block the passage of a Republican-drafted congressional map that could eliminate up to five Democratic House seats. 此举是在公开听证之后采取的,并遵循不到一周前共和党提出的提议。 The move comes after a public hearing and follows Republican proposals made less than a week ago. 肯·帕克斯顿总检察长已要求逮捕缺席的民主党人,并将其送回国家首都。 Attorney General Ken Paxton has called for the absent Democrats to be arrested and returned to the state capitol. 同时,州长Greg Abbott威胁说,如果德克萨斯众议院的民主党成员不返回,就会将失踪的民主党人从议员名单中除名。 Meanwhile, Governor Greg Abbott has threatened to remove the missing Democrats from the Texas House membership if they do not return.
