    “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.

    “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.”

    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

      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.

    So happy I got out of that state. I couldn’t stand the idea of my tax dollars funding this fuckhead’s administration.

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