“It would be BRIBERY…these legislators sought money to skip the vote.”

FOX: You said in your statement that you put out today, to all of them in a letter to them, you said in addition to abandoning their offices, these legislators may also have committed felonies. What is the felony? What are the penalties for this?

Governor Greg Abbott: “So very simply, it would be bribery if any lawmaker took money to perform or to refuse to perform an act in the legislature. And the reports are these legislators have been both- they sought money and they offered money-to skip the vote, to leave the legislature, to take a legislative act.

That would be bribery. And so the facts will have to come out, but I think based upon comments made by legislators themselves, they face a possibility of facing bribery charges, which is a second-degree felony in the state of Texas.

There’s one way to cure that, and that is if they get back to the state of Texas and make quorum today at a hearing that we have at three o’clock, they can cure themselves of any quid pro quo that would subject them to potential bribery charges.

On Sunday afternoon, Democrats left the state to travel to blue havens like Illinois, New York and Massachusetts in protest of Republicans’ proposed congressional map. The legislature is also working on disaster relief legislation after severe rainstorms last month caused flooding of the Guadalupe River. Democrats remain resolute in attempting to block the GOP effort to redraw the state’s map.
