From CNN's Natasha Chen, Kevin Conlon and Daniella DiazDemocratic Texas Reps. Sylvia Garcia and Sheila Jackson Lee, as well as New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, spoke at a news conference outside the Houston Food Bank where they said they plan to help Texans affected by the winter storm.
"You know, when disaster strikes, this is not just an issue for Texans, this is an issue for our entire country," Ocasio-Cortez said."As was mentioned earlier, disasters don't strike everyone equally when you already have so many families in the state and across the country that are on the brink, that can't even afford an emergency to begin with."
" hurts the vulnerable populations even more," Garcia, who spoke first, said during the press conference."My district was totally in the dark. And I know people are still hurting today ... we've got repairs to make." She added:"There will need to be reforms with ERCOT and I urge the legislature to do that. And then should include looking at whether or not to join the federal grid. I think everything should be on the table, Texas did not want to go through this again. They want accountability."
And Biden’s executive orders
they need to run ppl their stimulus checks like NOW
It is amazing how TX needs bailed out when majority of problem was caused by private Capitalist company.
Bidens on it. Maybe a week later. Maybe send some of the 10 thousand guardsmen doing nothing in DC to help?
I’m surprised lying Ted didn’t say he was bringing back tamales for Texas.
