News In Progress
A word from progressive leadership, AOC:
So many Texans are in desperate conditions without heat, water, and little relief.
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) February 17, 2021
Gov. Abbott needs to get off TV pointing fingers & start helping people.
After that, he needs to read a book on his own state’s energy supply. I’ll be prepping TX relief emails if he needs help.
Natural disasters reveal how brutal & inhumane our system of inequality is.
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) February 17, 2021
No one should be left to fend for themselves in a natural disaster. This is why we insist on justice in climate policy. In a modern society, equity is as important as technology.
We must modernize. #GND
It’s downright dangerous to drive in these conditions, please don’t. @GovAbbott has urged Texans to stay off the roads if they can and immediately call 800-525-5555 for roadside assistance if they become stranded on the road.

Hey @GovAbbott, instead of blaming @AOC for what's going on in Texas, hold Trump accountable who promised the country infrastructure week for four years and never delivered.

More about the leadership failure:
One state has snow plows. The other doesn’t.

One side of this street is Texarkana, Arkansas.
The other side is Texarkana, Texas.
