Texas has been and should remain a beacon for those who seek refuge from violence, tyranny and oppression. Refugees are our teachers, doctors, engineers but more importantly, our neighbors. Shame @GregAbbott_TX.https://www.star-telegram.com/news/politics-government/article239118873.html …

I agree we should lead where we can. But we can't just keep taking people if we haven't fully helped the people we have taken before. Have all the refugees you talk to say they have been completely resettled? Are their needs met to the best of our ability?
You’re right. TX has taken more than any other state. That’s primarily because we are the 2nd largest state in terms of geography and it’s harder to resettle refugees to Alaska than TX. Your point is not lost that we should help people in TX too. Let’s expand Medicaid to start.

Is Medicaid expansion what is holding us back from fully settling refugees we have taken in over the years? I'm trying to understand how the Texas government measures completed resettlements if they do. Not trying to be argumentative. I just want to understand the process.

If you have a resource I can read, I would be happy to look at it and not hit you up with all these questions. I do appreciate the time you are taking to talk with me about this.
