    Abbott is garbage on wheels and I sure hope he tries to mess with Children’s. It would be some of the worst publicity possible.

      Won’t matter. He’s not gonna get primaried except by someone more extreme, and he’s not going to lose to a Dem, so he’s untouchable.

      Texas has been GOP governed for 28 years; this is absolutely what they want.

      Companies headquartered in Texas should be boycotted.

    “You do not have to answer the citizenship question if you don’t want to. Your answer will not affect your care — you will not be turned away,” the flyer states. “You have a right to life-saving care, regardless of citizenship or immigration status.”
