I attend a Grassroots America meeting every week. We have guest speakers that are politicians that are running for office or other people discussing political matters for the state. It is neither republican nor democrat but very few democrats show up for the meetings.
I can tell you this much and that is the state of Texas is in some big trouble and we need to get our financial house in order. The numbers that I am going to tell you are on the money and not made up..
Tyler has 3 hospitals and they spend over 100 million per year on people that just walk in needing treatment. Federal law says they have to be treated.
How much money do you think that Texas spent last year on braces for illegals? We spend more money than all other 49 states combined @ 425 million last year. And guess what--if they don't have transportation to go to the dentist for the free braces the state will provide 25 paid for taxi trips for treatment.
That is just the tip of the ice burg on the spending. They get free eyeglasses through medicade,
they get WIC cards, Lone Star Cards, ect.. I promise you they can smuggle more over here than we can take care of.,
