Dems Who Fled Texas Now Begging For ‘Care Packages’ Like They’re Deployed Troops

The group of Democratic Texas legislators who fled the state for Washington, D.C., to block Republicans from proceeding on an election integrity bill is now requesting “care packages.”
“Our Dems in DC said they’d appreciate care packages from home. Before 5pm Tues, we’re collecting Dr. Pepper, salsa, hard candy, hairspray, travel toiletries, hand sanitizers, sewing kits, first aid, and/ or $ to pay shipping. TY!” the account for the Dallas County Democratic Party tweeted.

These same Democrats are collecting a $200 per diem from the State of Texas while someone else is paying their luxury hotel bills. In other words, they are actually making money sitting in Washington doing nothing. On top of their regular salaries, the per diem kicks in an additional $6,000 per month, tax free.
