        @SocraticTense This was a very poor choice of flaunting your work. You gutted CPS and children are at risk because of it.

        Are you seriously asking non-profits to do your job after you successfully wrecked the TX economy and halved the TX budget?

        Seems like R's hate gov, do everything they can to defund & destroy programs, then blame gov when they fail.

        Because you gutted it? Along with programs for disabled kids? You are a disgrace to Texas Baptists and religious groups who elected you.
