While Texas banned school meals altogether! “If god meant for you to eat he would have provided you a sack lunch” said Gov Abbott

Yeah, Texas isn't kind to it's citizens. Power (heat), food, you name it... They don't care unless they (the people in charge) are getting paid.

Seems rich coming from a wealthy, disabled politician. Sure, god doesn't provide sack lunches to poor kids, but he apparently does hand out wheelchairs, ADA ramps, elevators and door buttons to you?

Don't slam the door in other's faces. There's a reason why traditional America did things like the ADA and EPA.
