According to the Texas Tribune, at least four Democrats returned to the statehouse on Monday — leaving the House just five members shy of a quorum, which would allow legislation to be advanced. The Democrats who are continuing to hold out are irate at those who went back.

“You all threw us under the bus today!” Texas Rep. Ana-Maria Ramos tweeted at her four returning colleagues. “Why?”…
“Today @jamestalarico was one of those Texas Dems who showed up at the Capitol to help Republicans pass anti-voter bills,” Ramos wrote. “@jamestalarico was in DC 2 days ago with Dems and showed up in Austin with Republicans & @moodyforelpaso @RepMaryGonzalez to sell us out.”
