The chair of the Democratic Caucus in Texas’ House of Representatives called Governor Abbott’s move «purely insanity.»
Gene Wu, the chair of the Democratic Caucus in Texas’ House of Representatives, didn’t mince words when he reacted Tuesday to Governor Greg Abbott’s request that he be removed from his position.
«This is just purely insanity», Wu told CNN’s John King. Hours earlier, Abbott filed a lawsuit asking the Texas state Supreme Court to oust Wu.
Wu’s comments on Tuesday came as Democrats and Republicans in the Lone Star State are in an escalating battle over the GOP’s efforts to redraw Texas’ congressional map to gain five seats in the U.
