WHAT THE FUCK DID I TELL Y’ALL????
🚨 BREAKING: Texas State Rep. Brian Harrison IMMEDIATELY calls on Gov. Greg Abbott to call a Special Session while they still have control to strip the governor's emergency powers before Gina Hinojosa (D) assumes office
"Without action, Governor Hinojosa will inherit the powers of a DICTATOR."
- Ban the governor from suspending or changing state laws
- End emergency orders after 30 days unless the Legislature ratifies them
- Stop the governor from reissuing orders that expired or that lawmakers rejected
- Require emergency orders to be narrowly tailored
- Fast-track court challenges to emergency orders
"We still have total power in Texas, and we must act like it by using the remaining ten weeks to restore separation of powers and limit the emergency powers that Governor-Elect Hinojosa is set to inherit, which would allow her to destroy liberty in Texas by executive fiat."
He says he supports doing this for ANY governor, Republican or Democrat, but this makes it particularly pressing.
Honestly — Texas got wiped out. The clock is ticking!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Rep. Brian Harrison filed HB911 in 2022 to restrict these same emergency powers for any governor, stating they undermine separation of powers and should be opposed irrespective of party. Abbott has repeatedly issued/renewed disaster declarations exercising them.
