@GregAbbott_TX How is this not in every state?

@GregAbbott_TX How was it not already in the constitution?!

@GregAbbott_TX You’re a stand up guy, Greg.. congrats on doubling down on something every literal state has as a law

@GregAbbott_TX It already was in your Constitution. Article 6, Section 2. As Governor, you should have already known that. The epitome of govt beaucracy, spending time and money on something that already exists.

@GregAbbott_TX What performative BS. Are you going to add that water is wet next?

@GregAbbott_TX "Fixing problems that don't exist 101"

@GregAbbott_TX Shouldn't that be the norm nationwide?!

@GregAbbott_TX Amazing

@GregAbbott_TX Next stop, let’s enforce Texas residency requirements…

@GregAbbott_TX How will it be enforced.

@GregAbbott_TX What about voter ID to ensure that TX voters are actually citizens?

@GregAbbott_TX The fact this had to be written down is another sign of the deterioration of this country.

@GregAbbott_TX Yes. And it was already being done. How much money will this duplication of services cost TX taxpayers?

@GregAbbott_TX We voted overwhelmingly against real estate taxation as well, a long while back, but those taxes continue to increase dramatically. This means nothing.

@GregAbbott_TX A big victory in a bad night.

@GregAbbott_TX Seems redundant. It's already enshrined in the TX Constitution and state election laws.

@GregAbbott_TX A nation has the right to protect the meaning of its voice. Voting is not just a process it’s a responsibility tied to citizenship and shared destiny. If the foundation is clear, the debate stays honest. 🇺🇸🇰🇪

@GregAbbott_TX Sounds good. How are they going to prove citizenship? Drivers licenses don't work as tons of illegals have them. Most people don't have their birth certificate and there's no photo on the birth certificate (and if there was, it would be of a baby). Asking somebody to tell you if

@GregAbbott_TX I voted for that but my question here is hasn't it always been illegal? Also why can't the Texas AG prosecute voter fraud?

@GregAbbott_TX “While Texas election law already requires citizenship for voting and treats non-citizen participation as a felony, the amendment elevates the rule to the state constitution, making future changes require legislative and voter approval.”

@GregAbbott_TX How was it not that way before?

@GregAbbott_TX Now go one step further. End the 1000% chance that any foreign born citizen ever gets on a ballot in any county, city, or state of Texas ever again.

@GregAbbott_TX Okay good. How will it be enforced? That’s the problem with you law makers, no audits no plan to implement it etc.

@GregAbbott_TX It was already required and you know that. When you say something this stupid and performative you should probably end it with... and scene!

@GregAbbott_TX You would think part of a governor’s job description would be to know the laws of the state they lead, and the federal laws the state falls under.

@GregAbbott_TX Are you going to follow up on the non citizens and see if they are illegal, then immediately deport them?

@GregAbbott_TX Now make sure it will be enforced and no cheating allowed.

@GregAbbott_TX Now we need this at the Federal level. Only citizens should be voting. My city allows non-citizens to vote in local affairs the name of 'equity'. As it turns out, they just vote for free stuff that taxpayers have to give them.

@GregAbbott_TX So when they go to vote, how are you going to check if they’re US citizens or not if voter ID is not required?

@GregAbbott_TX Wasn't it always a requirement? What is citizenship for?

@GregAbbott_TX Now how do we make sure that happens.

@GregAbbott_TX And water is wet. ONLY citizens have ever been allowed to vote despite your corrupt efforts to make people think otherwise. Of course you will enact measures that will make it difficult for minorities (who are citizens) to vote. Because that’s the only way you can win

@GregAbbott_TX It's been there for years. What are you talking about? Art 6 - Sec 2 of the Tx Constitution.

@GregAbbott_TX But we don't really have voter ID, so why'd we vote for this? 🤔

@GregAbbott_TX It was already the law not just in Texas, but all 50 states… and still is. But take a bow for the performance.

@GregAbbott_TX Wasn't that also the law before today?
