🩺Texas is applying for $1 billion to support rural health. As rural hospitals close their labor and deliver services, we are urging the state to make rural maternal health a priority when it rolls out this funding.🤰 #TXlege

Federal employees have gone over a month without pay. Child care centers are closing. Families are missing SNAP benefits. Steps by USDA and states won't be sufficient to feed kids — or to address other consequences of closing the government — if Congress continues the shutdown.

On the impact of layoffs at the US Office of Special Education & Rehabilitation Services: “These are families who feel like they have no voice and no recourse,” she said. “It’s almost like the law exists, but there is nobody to really enforce it.”nytimes.com/2025/10/21/us/…

It’s happening this week: Congressional leaders will vote either to ⬆️ the uninsured population by 17 million (2M in TX) and take away food benefits for millions or they can protect #Medicaid and #SNAP by voting no and choosing a more pro-family path. ⁦ cnn.com/2025/06/26/pol…

Concerning impact of budget constraints: one district has cut its pre-K for 3s program. National and TX research have shown that the benefits of pre-K for eligible kids are greater for those kids who attend 2 years of pre-K over just one. #txlege #txed expressnews.com/news/education…

Lots of rumors that the Senate will make Medicaid cuts bigger by restricting provider taxes further We await language later today. This is an existential question for many rural hospitals.
