Court papers filed Wednesday state that Mr. Abrego Garcia was beaten, deprived of sleep, and subjected to psychological torture during the nearly three months he spent in Salvadoran custody. It is unacceptable to send people to other countries to be tortured!

Physician anesthesiologists complete nearly 2x the amount of higher education as nurse anesthetists & roughly 5x times more hours of clinical training. A nurse cannot replace a physician. Who do you want protecting your life in an emergency?
Opinion | The 'Anesthesiologist' Title Must Be Restricted to Physicians
Nurse anesthetists should not be allowed to change their title

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

Texas has some of the best hospitals in the country, but too many children and families still can’t access the care they need.
I met with leadership from the Texas Scottish Rite Hospital to discuss how they’re developing innovative advancements in pediatric care.

Marbury v Madison is a seminal case from 1803 that holds that the federal courts must determine the constitutionality of the actions of the other two branches of government. Hope that helps, Stephen.

In a state that makes vaccine exemptions easy to obtain, Gaines County has one of the lowest vaccination rates in Texas - far below the vaccination rate needed to prevent outbreaks.
17.6% of kindergartners in the County have a vaccine exemption on file, as well as nearly 14% of 7th graders.

West Texas Measles Outbreak
One in five kindergarteners in Gaines County schools has a non-medical vaccine exemption. Low vaccination rates prime the area for the easy, natural spread of measles.
