Texas has stripped Medicaid coverage from 2 million people, most of them children. ProPublica and Texas_Tribune found that disenrollment mistakes during the “unwinding” after the COVID-19 public health emergency were preventable and foreshadowed by warnings from the federal government, whistleblowers and advocates.

Some Texas families that lost Medicaid coverage are also waiting months for food assistance because the state uses the same software to process both applications.

A red state of course, because what says that you're the party of family values and drives home that you are also banning abortions "for the babies" more than kicking children off of their healthcare once the mother has given birth??
