The Texas House of Representatives' redistricting committee approved a revised congressional map bill, preparing it for the House floor. A quorum was established as Democrats returned, allowing Republicans to push their proposed map possibly gaining five seats. The Senate's referred new version followed procedural steps due to the new session. President Trump urged swift passage, highlighting its popularity among Republicans, while Burrows reflected on the institution's resilience through various challenges in its history.
"It is one of the most popular initiatives I have ever supported. Republicans love watching us fight for a Great Cause. Please pass this Map, ASAP," Trump wrote in a post on his social media platform.
"The House has been through a tumultuous two weeks, but this institution long predates us and will long outlast each of us," Burrows said. "Representatives come and go, issues rise and fall, but this body has endured wars, economic depressions."
