Can Governor Abbott have Democrats arrested when they return to Texas?

He says he will have them arrested and brought back to the capitol so the voting restrictions can be passed, and his argument is that legislators have to show up to work just like everyone else. But is it legal to arrest someone and force them to go to the capitol? And since when is it a crime to not show up for work? Are Americans workers or slaves?

I’m not surprised that a GOP representative would think he has the right to do such a thing. The fact that they’re trying to reverse the Voters’ Rights Act indicates they’re not concerned about upholding our Constitution anymore. 😳
