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

      Companies headquartered in Texas should be boycotted.

    Texas Governor Greg Abbott has threatened a children’s hospital with “consequences” after a doctor posted a viral TikTok telling patients they’re not legally obligated to tell a hospital their citizenship status.

    This has to be the depths of depravity, to smugly threaten critical funding for a children’s hospital because some individual doctors (correctly) point out that the state’s immigration question is non binding.

    He’d rather hurt everyone’s kids if it means he can’t hurt the brown kids more. Maybe that tree should have fallen a little closer to his head and we’d all be spared this reality

    What a great way to ensure your state has a critical shortage of doctors. Already happening for women health care departments.

    “Hey Texas Children’s Hospital & Baylor College of Medicine this doctor is putting your Medicaid & Medicare funding at risk,” Abbott wrote on X, sharing a link to an Express-News article that reports on Pastor’s video.

    No, Abbot. YOU and the Cheeto-elect are putting their funding at risk. You are absolute garbage human beings.

    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.

    “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.”
