Didn’t Texas legislators do something similar to this about 10 years ago? ... leave to avoid a vote I mean.
Yup, first the dim house reps fled to Ardmore OK, and then the senate dims went to NM. It was during the redistricting in Texas. I think that is why I joined FR.
I posted some FR links about the dim flight on another thread.
