Republicans in the Texas Senate advanced a sweeping voting restrictions bill early Thursday seeking to reverse policies adopted by localities within the state that made it easier for people to vote.
Senate Bill 7 would slash extended early voting hours, make it illegal for local officials to send absentee ballot applications to qualified individuals without them first requesting one and completely end drive-thru voting, the method used by approximately 127,000 Texans during the 2020 election. The bill passed 18-13.
