Politicos claim to protect life but refuse to give a dime to keeping a child healthy after a baby is born. it's easy to be against abortion. It doesn't cost a dime. Then there's the record of Texas governors executing more people than any other state or country in the world.
I just wish Republican reverence for life was consistent with their actions. They use this issue as an wedge issue when they really want to prop up corporations and billionaires. It's time to wake up Texas!
