Take notice people. The Dems walked out because they do not want voter ID, which means they do not want fair elections. They are not even hiding it anymore. They want illegal aliens voting.
Good for them...they should do all they can to stop Republicans from making it harder for average folks to vote just because they know they'll lose because of how unpopular their ideas are.

Yes, and why not just vote no? A huge grandstand for noncitizen voters

If the opposing minority side can simply walk out and cause a bill to fail, then there is no point for a majority or a minority and it tells the people that their votes mean nothing.
This is childish and typical of anti-intellectuals.
How is it childish? It works. They won. They've done it before so this shouldn't have come as a surprise to anyone. They are exploiting a loophole that the Texas GOP is too timid to close. But don't worry the Texas dems will close it next time they have the majority to keep the GOP from doing the same to them, because they are not timid.

Poll shows 55% average Americans are for a ID.
