Think that was on the previous thing

They called the vote on the bill after that other one.

 

[Jhriad]

What does the question being adopted mean?

It means we'll be seeing this in a courtroom near you.

 

[sangreal]

I hope some rule that they choose to follow doesn't fuck this up.

It won't matter, it requires a majority vote to overturn any rule violations

 

[Squirrel Killer]

The chair said SB5 passed.

 

[Clydefrog]

shame chant?

 

[Jintor]

Shame on you fuckers

What the fuck was that

 

[RyanDG]

Ugly.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

shame

 

[Drakeon]

Not surprised Republican's would ram it through regardless of rules. The blowback on this is going to be insane. Unfortunately, not enough to make the texas legislature blue or anything.

 

[SolarPowered]

Go home and be a family man, Mr.President.

 

[HK-47]

SOMEONE GET THE VUVUZELAS

We need we need air horns and noisemakers.

 

[Chris R]

Yup it passed and the dude just left.

 

[Spaaaaaaaaace]

Did it or did it not pass?

 

[aceface]

It passed? They are chanting "shame" now?

 

[chronos4590]

Edit: wait wtf is going on now , pass or not

 

[Koomaster]

What vote was that, what happened?

 

[TCKaos]

.

 

[B-Dubs]

Apparently, despite the roll call being suspended. I don't think the crowd heard him, though. This is amazing levels of bullshit.

I'm not sure it was for the bill, it may have been for the 3rd strike and end of the filibuster.

 

[GoddyofAus]

"Shame! Shame! Shame!"

 

[kai3345]

So did it pass?

 

[stktt]

Did it or did it not pass?

It did.

 

[AniHawk]

Those poor people, these idiots passed it right under their noses

that's not what matters. 180,000 people saw them do it amidst a crowd screaming against their favor for 15 goddamn minutes. and many more will see it happen tomorrow.

texas senate, you dun fucked up son.

 

[malfcn]

Why are people saying 10 more minutes?

 

[phosphor112]

It is officially past 12:00

 

[bonercop]

d...did justice prevail?

HOLY SHIT

10/10! 5 doritos popes out of 5!

GODDAMN

 

[Unknown Soldier]

They're yelling SHAME! SHAME! now. Wow.

What the hell is going on. Did they actually manage to pass this thing?

 

[antonz]

Oh please, anti choice guy, give us more of your sage strategic advice to pro choicers.

You realize most pro choice people are not thrilled with abortion and a movement to make abortion seem cool would be a disastrous idea

 

[chubigans]

Oh wait, now they're voting?

 

[helloresolven]

I'm so confused right now .

 

[Alexlf]

It's past time, can't they get it thrown out?

 

[royalan]

Wasn't that vote for repealing the previous strike though?

That's what I thought.

That wasn't a vote to end the filibuster.

 

[kingkitty]

absolute shame.

 

[chinaismine]

Calling a roll call right now.

 

[JABEE]

It should be over?

 

[I am Michael Bolton]

it passed? smh. wow.

 

[mackaveli]

that's not what matters. 180,000 people saw them do it amidst a crowd screaming against their favor for 15 goddamn minutes. and many more will see it happen tomorrow.

texas senate, you dun fucked up son.

Especially with social media.

Even if people think it won't be a big deal. If you have 180k people tweet this, and have them tweet this. It should go big.

 

[Officerrob]

They can't call roll now, it''s after midnight

 

[piratepwnsninja]

They're trying to do a roll call vote.

 

[LiK]

Fuck you assholes, they're gonna keep trying to pass it

 

[K.Sabot]

So they broke their own rules?

 

[iammeiam]

I'm not sure it was for the bill, it may have been for the 3rd strike and end of the filibuster.

They did the third strike already--that's when the lady tried to move to adjourn and got shot down. Then they called another vote, which I believe was this bill. Then the crowd imploded and he claimed it was suspended...

 

[Wario64]

This is so confusing

 

[aceface]

No way they can call the roll past midnight?

I said this would happen.

 

[B-Dubs]

d...did justice prevail?

HOLY SHIT

10/10! 5 doritos popes out of 5!

GODDAMN

No I think they rammed it through...I have no idea what is going on anymore

 

[Zombie James]

It didn't go through or did it?

 

[Sax Russel]

What is going on, I thought the good guys won =(

 

[Black Mamba]

So it passed? Amazing.

 

[Frankenstrat]

What in the fuck is going on even

 

[Incognito]

SB5 has not been voted on. Lots of conflicting reports out there.

I do not, however, know what is being voted on at the moment.

It's officially over, #SB5 did not receive Senate approval


AP correspondent in Austin RT @cltomlinson: I just confirmed, there has been no vote on #sb5 #txlege shut down by protests.

 

[speculawyer]

I have no idea what is going on.
