This is “old” (last Friday), but important news. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is pulling tricks straight out of Alabama’s playbook in in the mid-1950. He is targeting the associations supporting Latino voter registration efforts, following LULAC’s endorsement of Harris. This was LULAC’s first endorsement in nearly a century.
“A nonprofit focused on increasing Latinos’ civic participation sued Attorney General Ken Paxton in federal court Friday so it could continue its voter registration efforts after the Republican official targeted them in an investigation last month.
The organization Jolt said in its request for a temporary restraining order that Paxton’s investigation would irreparably harm the organization and its associates by disclosing personal information and potentially placing its workers, volunteers and associates in harm’s way.”
