House Speaker said he expected the missing members to return by Monday to resume work on redistricting, THC rules and flood responses.

Texas House Democrats blocked the end of the first special session by maintaining a quorum break, preventing Republicans from passing new congressional maps. Speaker Dustin Burrows adjourned the session with only 95 members present—five short of quorum.

Republican leaders said that if they can't reach a quorum again at 10 a.m., both the House and Senate will wrap up the special session.
