For the second straight morning, Texas Democratic lawmakers woke up in Illinois. They are hiding out in Democratic states to block a vote on new congressional maps.

Republicans control the Texas House by an 88-62 margin, but Texas requires at least two-thirds of the members be present for the House to conduct business. By fleeing the state, Democrats have effectively shut down business in the House and made it impossible for Texas law enforcement officials to compel them to return to the Statehouse.

Pritzker has arranged for roughly 30 Democratic lawmakers to stay in Illinois for the week. Politico was first to report the lawmakers had left the state.
