Hinojosa Pushes $1500 Rebate Challenge | El Paso News

Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description

Texas gubernatorial hopeful Gina Hinojosa is rolling out a bold plan to give every household $1,500 — calling it a refund from what she dubs “Abbott’s corruption tax,” citing billions sitting idle in the state’s rainy-day fund. She’s pushing for a legislative emergency to fund the $17 billion rebate, insisting it won’t hurt the state’s $10 billion reserve. Meanwhile, Governor Abbott remains silent, while he’s busy lobbying for $10 billion in federal reimbursements for his border initiative — money that would return to the state budget, not go directly to Texans.
