Beto O’Rourke: Texas Dems Fleeing to Illinois ‘Is the Highest Form of Public Service’

EXCERPT:

O'ROURKE: “I think what they're doing is the highest form of public service. They're trying to stop the consolidation of authoritarian power in America. As Trump and Greg Abbott and Ken Paxton and Republicans in Texas, thick as thieves, try to steal these five seats in Texas, because without them, Trump's going to lose a majority in the House of Representatives. And without that majority, there's a check on his lawlessness, accountability for his crimes and corruption, and the possibility of free and fair elections going forward.”
