Governor Greg Abbott Discusses THC Regulation and Redistricting in Texas

Published | Video Starts at 02:32

Doesn't that signal that Republicans are a little bit nervous about the midterms? So what we're focused on is not what may happen in the midterms. We're focused on making sure that we draw maps in the state of Texas that will maximize the ability of Texas residents across the state to be able to vote for their candidate of choice. So the special session is underway. Committee hearings are already happening. One happened today for the THC bill in the Senate. Later this week, we'll have a redistricting hearing. (02:32–02:45)
