Wendy Davis discusses her filibuster of Senate Bill 5. On June 25, 2013, Senator Wendy Davis of District 10 in Texas held a filibuster that forced Governor Rick Perry to need to call a special session to continue the debate of a budget bill that cut $4 billion from public education in the state. Davis says that she was the only Senator who was willing to hold the filibuster – and that this was the first time she’d worn flat shoes to a Senate meeting.
