Texas Dems Can Come Home, For Now...

Lawmakers adjourn without redistricting bill

The second special legislative session that stood at a standstill for 30 days after 11 Senate Democrats broke a quorum in their chamber by fleeing to Albuquerque, N.M., ended Tuesday without a new congressional redistricting plan.

The fight over redistricting seemed far from over, however.

Republican Gov. Rick Perry has indicated that he will call another session on the issue, but he has not said when it would start. Republican Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst sent a warning to the Democrats.
