Paxton offers conditions for potential exit from Texas Senate race
Ken Paxton ties withdrawal from Texas Senate runoff to passage of the SAVE Act, a bill requiring proof of citizenship for federal elections, while defying GOP leaders and Trump pressure.
- Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said he would consider dropping out of the state's U.S. Senate race if GOP leaders agree to eliminate the filibuster and pass President Donald Trump's SAVE America Act.
- Paxton accused incumbent Senator John Cornyn of refusing to back changes to Senate rules needed to move the bill forward and portrayed himself as one of Trump's most loyal allies.
- Nobody captured 50 percent of the vote in Tuesday's Republican primary in Texas, meaning a runoff vote will be necessary between Cornyn and Paxton.
