    Today I proposed a law limiting bail for criminals who repeatedly assault law enforcement officers. A DPS officer was killed by such a criminal out of jail on $15,500 bail. #txlege #BackTheBluepic.twitter.com/cbN3qTtJsX

        Texas is dead last in percentage of adults with health insurance. This is on your watch @GregAbbott_TX

        So what? Not everyone wants or needs health insurance...many people prefer to pay CASH for their healthcare rather than pay out the ying yang for a product they don't want. The gov't forcing people to have health ins. is unconstitutional and it was dropped from Obamacare.

        The federal gov't needs to get out of healthcare for all but the poorest of the poor...Privatization & the free market w/less regulations & ability 2 buy a product across state lines works to lower costs when facilitated. Private insurance needed tweaked, not destroyed by BO!

        Or...we could use the perfectly good working systems in developed countries across the globe, tweak what we need to, and get people covered. We don’t need to reinvent the wheel.

        Obamacare kept me from being able to afford health insurance, the deductibles were so high and the premium cost were even higher. Had to pay the penalty at tax time. Big scam.

        I’m sorry to hear that. It got 20 million insured which is amazing but needs some tweaking. That’s why we are lucky there are so many countries like us that have figured out how to get great healthcare to all their people. We can just take their ideas and we are good to go.

        What about limiting bail for white collar criminals who litigate their way out of ever serving time for their crime? @KenPaxtonTX comes to mind

        Good idea @GovAbbott, I'm all 4 it but let's take it 1 more step b/c #LawEnforcement usually hav #fighting chance thru #training & backup. Let's also protect spouses, domestic partners & children from people who repeatedly assault them & let out on bail only 2 do it again or kill
