Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Tuesday said prison is on the line for former Democratic Rep. Beto O’Rourke after he was accused of violating a court order blocking him from funding Democratic lawmakers seeking to thwart the GOP’s redistricting plan.

Paxton sued O’Rourke and his political group, Powered by People, last week, arguing that the group was deceptively fundraising for and illegally supporting Texas Democrats’ walkout.

Attorney General Ken Paxton seeks to hold Beto O'Rourke in contempt for violating a temporary restraining order by continuing to fundraise, disregarding the legal consequences outlined by a Texas judge.
