"Republican leadership in #Texas refused to let Democratic state Rep. Nicole Collier leave the House chamber after she refused to agree to a 24/7 police "escort."

... #Democrats who left the state would only be allowed to leave the chamber on Monday if they signed an agreement to be accompanied by an escort from the Texas Dept of Public Safety...

Collier was "locked into the House chamber" because she refused to sign the document."
