Watch as state Rep. Nicole Collier (D-Fort Worth) shares what’s at stake for Texans, and democracy, if the GOP’s redistricting plan passes. It disenfranchises Black and brown voters and flips five US House seats currently held by Democrats to Republicans.

Collier has been detained in the Texas Capitol since Monday for refusing to comply with demands from House Speaker Dustin Burrows, who required House Democrats to sign permission slips and be followed by state troopers in order to leave the building.
