A Texas judge declared a law that prevented cities from passing some local ordinances unconstitutional. The law, championed by Republican Gov. Greg Abbott, effectively limited the power of Democrat-led cities. The law even eliminated ordinances that mandated water breaks for construction workers, earning it the nickname "the law that kills." Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican, signed a bill into law in June that prohibited cities from passing certain local ordinances. It was widely seen as an effort to curb the power of Democrat-led cities.
