A baby survives an attempted abortion. Texas law requires that baby to receive lifesaving medical care. Texas Democrats want to repeal that protection.And that's not all. Rep. Donna Howard (D) has filed HB 126, a sweeping bill containing 46 repeal provisions that would dismantle decades of Texas laws protecting preborn children, newborns, women, and parental rights. HB 126 would also repeal Texas's prohibition on pediatric gender modification, eliminate parental consent requirements for minors seeking abortions, dismantle informed consent protections, and repeal the Thriving Texas Families Program, which provides resources to women who choose life. These are protections Texans have spent YEARS fighting for. Many survived lengthy court battles. I've published a new Protect Childhood Initiative policy brief examining all 46 repeal provisions and explaining exactly what Democrats are proposing. Read it. Share it. Know what's being proposed in the Texas Legislature. protectchildhood.substack.co… Texas Democrats had no intention of throwing in the towel on the culture wars. They're coming after our kids harder than ever. HB 126 is nothing less than a child sacrifice initiative. #txlege @TexasGOP

Can you imagine being a political consultant and making these admissions to Current Revolt? “Bellsnyder confirmed that the Hinojosa campaign knew she was working on the op-ed for the Dallas Morning News (DMN). She could not confirm whether or not the Hinojosa campaign reviewed her op-ed before she submitted it to the DMN.” And when asked about failing to disclose the $57,000 her company received from the Hinojosa campaign, Bellsnyder said, “I’m assuming that they knew.” She added, “I did not even see it as an issue.” In trying to explain herself, Bellsnyder may have created an even bigger problem for the Hinojosa campaign. Depending on how the op-ed was coordinated, there could be legitimate questions about compliance with Texas campaign finance laws and political advertising disclosure requirements under the Election Code. The Texas Ethics Commission may want to take a closer look. Hinojosa should have known that working with overly emotional, unhinged women like Bellsnyder was a political liability. Bellsnyder has been around Texas politics for a long time. She should know better.
