Texas Democrat Nicole Collier protests GOP law enforcement escorts by staying overnight on House floor
Texas Democratic Rep. Nicole Collier was confined in the Capitol overnight after refusing to sign a police escort permission slip during a GOP-imposed surveillance measure following a Democratic walkout over redistricting plans. She and other Democrats returned to the House chamber, with Collier choosing to stay and sleep on the floor in protest, while most Democrats signed the escort permission slip. The escort requirement is set to expire after the House passes the congressional map.
