5:16Now PlayingDemocratic lawmakers in Texas have fled the state to prevent a special session of the state legislature from moving forward with a redistricting plan. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has threatened them with removal from the state House and arrest if they do not return by Monday afternoon. The redistricting effort is being led by the White House, as a redrawn map could make a difference in whether Democrats can retake the U.S. House in 2026.
