Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is launching an investigation into Beto O'Rourke's PAC for allegedly funding House Democrats' walkout in protest of a controversial redistricting plan. The walkout, led by State Representative Gene Wu, garnered national attention as Democrats argued the redistricting plan would disenfranchise minority voters.

The redistricting plan, proposed by Republicans, has been criticized for potentially diluting the voting power of minority communities in Texas. Democrats have accused Republicans of gerrymandering in an attempt to maintain their hold on power in the state.

State Representative Wu, a Democrat from Houston, has been a vocal opponent of the redistricting plan, calling it a blatant attempt to silence minority voices in Texas. He led the Democratic walkout as a last-ditch effort to block the legislation from advancing.

The investigation into O'Rourke's PAC further highlights the deepening political divide in Texas, with Democrats and Republicans locked in a bitter battle over voting rights and redistricting. As the investigation unfolds, the future of Texas politics hangs in the balance.
