Last week, TX once again made headlines as the Secretary of State’s office announced that they will only be providing limited numbers of voter registration applications to Texans, blaming paper shortages. #txlege

Here are 5 things Abbott should be prioritizing instead of pandering to our failed, twice-impeached ex-president:
