Texas Governor Greg Abbott has ordered hospitals to gather data on the immigration status of patients, arguing Texas has had to “foot the bill” for the Biden administration’s border policies.
Under the executive order, hospitals will have to compile statistics on inpatient discharges and emergency visits by undocumented migrants, as well as on the cost of caring for them.
Opponents say the order will lead to racial profiling and deter migrants from seeking help.
That’s cool. Drag it out till the election and flood texas with ads saying that want to take away everyone’s freedom. Once they cave to giving them that, they will come after everyone
The problem is that there are a shit ton of immigrant-hating racist Republicans in Texas.
If you haven’t seen the Daily Show segment where Michael Kosta goes to Eagle Pass, TX, I recommend it.
