An open message to any Texas lawmaker who wants to break quorum...

If you manage to cross the State line I am willing to put you up as long as is necessary.

If I were still a resident of Texas I would be glad to provide you a place to stay and would willingly work with others to get you across the State line.

Women's rights are Human rights, once & for all.

"Women's rights are human rights" is a phrase used in the feminist movement. ... Its most prominent usage is as the name of a speech given by Hillary Rodham Clinton, the First Lady of the United States, on 5 September 1995, at the United Nations Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing.

In honor of Tx Gov Ann Richards, rip
