Let me get this? Over 130 Texan dead including children in Flash Flood Alley but Republicans are focused on redistricting?

Houston Chronicle asked you how Texas lawmakers can prevent future flash flood deaths in "Flash Flood Alley". 

Texa Flash Flood Alley but where are the sirens?

Texas is drowning and the Republican legilature is playing politics:

When the Texas Legislature’s special session starts Monday, people will still be searching for bodies in the mud and muck of the Guadalupe River. And even when the special session ends, they will likely still be searching for loved ones, swept away during the catastrophic July 4th floods. 
What will be done in Austin to help those families❓

Republican lawmakers  lawmakers bear the burden of delivering the change our state needs. They have a responsibility to dig through the flotsam (aka "ship wrecks!) of tough policy questions and pass reforms that reassure Texans everywhere, that we have not been totally abandoned to cataclysmic storms.

A special session of the Texas Legislature will begin and although Governor Greg Abbott announced that response to the Texas Hill Country flash floods is on the agenda, much of the lawmakers' focus appears to be on intensely partisan issues such as redistricting. 😡🙄

But!  Flooding is a high priority⚠️

Here, lightly edited, are some of the responses.

From Jean Tanner, in Harris County: Don't just settle for sirens. The expert who said you can get a warning system that tells you in words what to do got my vote. Also, we need to scale back on the other uses of cell phone alerts. I'm not saying these alerts are false alarms, but hearing about a missing child who is 800 miles away just makes people turn them off or ignore them. 

Rather, the Republican in the Texas legislature need to make all flood-related bills the top priority❗ Nothing is more important than saving lives, and our elected officials need to put their thoughts and prayers into action immediately. This is how you honor those we lost: by preventing it from happening to someone else.
