A brave Democratic State Senator in Texas is taking on the Governor, Lt. Governor and the Republican war on women. The rules for Filibustering in Texas are more strict than in Washington and the Lt. Governor and GOP leadership are doing everything they can to stop Senator Wendy Davis from speaking.
I stand with Senator Wendy Davis!

Update - Senator Davis was forced to end her filibuster by the Lt. Governor and the vote was held. But, the vote was ruled invalid because it took place after midnight and the session legally had to end at midnight. The Governor of Texas will now waste/spend more taxpayers money and call another special session.
