        so then why do you need to charge Texans higher premiums for insurance to cover their abortions, even when they're raped?

        The strong Texas economy will benefit from strong condemnation of rioters who destroy property. Hope you are preparing a game plan.

        How about investing some of that money into schools instead letting property taxes keep going up?

        Instead of starting Kinder curriculum 2 yrs ahead, they had ISD's cram over 2 yrs in current grades. 2nd grader learning what 5th grade was.
