To recap;
The filibuster itself semi failed when it was successfully contested with 2 hours remaining on the clock for having veered too far off topic.
She got a good 15-20 minute reaction from the masses though trying to help prolong the delay before they were able to resume proceedings, and the end result was the bill, which effectively would've shut down the majority of abortion clinics in Texas, died on the floor. Governor's office has pointed out they can call another special session to revisit the issue but considering how unprecedented the rebellion against the bill was I hope they'll think long and hard before trying to do so.
