Gov. Greg Abbott threatens Texas hospital after doctor trashes state's migrant ID order
Nov 27, 2024
After a cardiologist posted a viral video telling Texas hospital patients they're not required to answer questions posed about their citizenship status, Gov. Greg Abbott fired off a tweet appearing to threaten funding for the doctor's hospital. Dr. Tony Pastor posted a TikTok video blasting Abbott's recent executive order that Texas hospitals must collect the citizenship status of immigrants they treat. In the clip, Pastor said he worries the information could be used to deport undocumented immigrants.
