Texas Scorecard by Brandon Waltens December 4, 2023
State Rep. Brian Harrison has filed a resolution to remove every Democrat committee chair in the Texas House.After the Texas Democrat Party called for an immediate ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war, a Republican member of the Texas House is calling for all Democrats to be removed from the chamber’s leadership.
A resolution passed by the State Democrat Executive Committee during their meeting Saturday called for an “immediate ceasefire” and encourages “all parties to cease hostilities and prioritize the protection of civilian lives.” The resolution comes nearly two months after Hamas launched a surprise attack against Israeli civilians, killing more than 1,200 people.
State Rep. Brian Harrison (R–Midlothian) says the resolution amounts to “siding with Hamas.”
“I call on Speaker Phelan to IMMEDIATELY remove any Democrat who does not disavow this resolution from leadership positions, including Chairmanships & Parliamentarians,” he wrote in a post on X.
