So here’s a repugnant move by right-wing assholes. Taxans: you can counter that shit. If a hospital asks you whether you are in the country legally, instead of saying “yes” the right answer is “I decline to answer”. Don’t give the dicks their stats.
This will get people killed, just like the reactionary psychos want.
I fuckin’ hate our State government.
Please be a hero and vote against Abbott, Paxton, Cruz, and every other Republican in the state.
It sounds like its so restricting and oppressive living in Texas. All this shit is the opposite of freedom.
But only for women and brown folk, not actual people.
Not true, if you’re a human who can feel empathy its probably depressing. Imagine if you.care about your SO, and she gets pregnant and sick, and you both live in Texas, and you’re a white man. Now its still effecting you and we’ve accomplished nothing but misery. Which, the misery is the point.
Thats why Texas doctors only recite the hypocritical oath.
Sure beats actually giving a fuck about people, I guess…
Makes sense. You don’t want to give illegal immigrants any incentive to come here.
they don’t need incentives when they’re refugees…
Yeah, they come here for our healthcare.
Fascists are the dumbest people on earth.
In fact, borderline human rights compromise is actually a good incentive for people to leave. Would perhaps be good for the country if those in Texas who respect human rights would move from Texas to Pennsylvania for a human rights upgrade (where also the death penalty was repealed).
But I doubt your statement is accurate considering inbound refugees are fleeing from even worse conditions w.r.t. human rights. Refugees still technically have their human right to access emergency medical treatment, they just risk getting harassed and tagged for deportation.
Yeah, maybe we can send a few dozen to Martha’s Vineyard again, or start another emergency in New York! It was funny how few it took the last time. It’s not like lefties understand how bad illegals are until they actually have to deal with the consequences
Literally no one thinks all the states shouldn’t bear the load of refugees equally. The “emergency” was the Texas government lying to people about what they were doing on the bus and secretively transporting them specific places to create political theater. If the Texas government said “hey y’all, we have a lot of refugees coming in. We’re going to be sending 3 bus loads/week to NYC, and a bus load will arrive to Martha’s Vineyard in 2 days,” you do realize none of this would’ve been in the news at all
Illegal immigrants arrive secretly. That’s part of why they’re so damaging, you can’t prepare for them.
Well asylum seekers aren’t illegal immigrants, to be clear, but once Texas knows about them, you fucking can prepare for them, dumbass. My entire point was that the Texas government purposefully lied and withheld information to create political theater in other jurisdictions that were more than willing to help and coordinate a shared response
We were talking about illegals. Not asylum seekers.
You we’re talking about the asylum seekers Texas sent to Martha’s Vineyard and NYC after lying to them and withholding information from the receiving jurisdictions for the purpose of creating political theater
Surely the incentives for legal and illegal immigrants, and natural born citizens, are the same?
