“Deep State will pull all federal funding from Texas unless Texas complies.…”
Texas pays fed taxes that they can stop paying.
Take a good, hard look at the Texas budget.
Texas hasn’t planned for this threat.
And hasn’t had an honest conversation with Texas citizens about what has to be done if federal funding is yanked.
“Texas pays fed taxes that they can stop paying.”
ABSOLUTELY. And they pay much more than they receive back. They do not need the Feds to support them at all. In fact they would be net positive to keep it all in state.
