Update: 2025-08-08

Description

It’s been five days since Democrats left Texas to deny quorum in the Texas House and stall redistricting legislation. There has been a non-stop whirlwind of activity and developments since they left. In this early release episode of Y’all-itics, leading Democrats explain why they’re risking arrest and their livelihoods. Puck political reporter Abby Livingston will tell you where the battle is headed next. And a California Republican spells out why he’s trying to ban mid-decade redistricting.
