Texas Democrats to return after governor ends special session that included redistricting

Texas House Democrats who left the state to block a vote on new congressional maps plan to return, claiming victory for derailing the first special session and drawing national attention to the redistricting fight. Their return may shift depending on whether Republicans begin a second special session, which Gov. Greg Abbott has pledged to call immediately if needed. Democrats say their plans remain fluid, contingent on GOP actions and prioritization of issues like flood relief over redistricting, ABC News has reported.
