AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas Democrats ended a two-week walkout Monday that stalled Republican efforts to redraw congressional districts as part of a national partisan brawl over President Donald Trump’s desire to reshape U.S. House maps to his advantage.

Texas Republicans insisted that Democrats have around-the-clock police escorts to ensure they wouldn’t leave again.

The Texas House reached a quorum earlier Monday after Democrats returned to Austin ending a two-week standoff with Republicans over proposed congressional maps.

A walkout by Democratic legislators in Texas has ended, and Republicans are arranging to push a plan for redrawing the state’s congressional districts through the GOP-controlled Legislature.

The Republican-controlled chamber will gavel back into session Wednesday with an intent to vote on a plan to help the GOP in the midterms.
