Texas policymakers should be working to improve our state policies to support kids and families, not roll them back.
And given everything that Texas families are going through during this pandemic and jobs crisis, this is a particularly bad time to cut health services and other support for Texans.
Instead of these cuts, state leaders should tackle the state's revenue shortfall by using the Rainy Day Fund, urging Congress to provide additional Medicaid dollars and other funds to states, and exploring other ways to bring in new revenue.
Thank you for raising your voice to support Texas kids and families during these tough times!
