Texas Democrats take light weekend amid redistricting dispute
After a week of news conferences the 11 Texas Senate Democrats who fled to New Mexico planned a quieter weekend. Sen. Rodney Ellis and Sen. Eliot Shapleigh visited family while others toured Indian reservations and a birthday outing for a son was noted. The group criticized redistricting plans and faced questions over salaries and travel, with supporters arguing they serve constituents.
