Attorney General Ken Paxton has sent a civil investigative demand to Seattle Children's Hospital, demanding data on all Texas patients traveling for care, despite having no jurisdiction there.
It definitely is ethically, but I don’t know that every state has legal provisions that would protect it in the same way that something like a heart procedure would be.
Yeah, that’s pretty emblematic of how seriously most of the country’s politicians take mental health 😮💨
To the GOP ones like Paxton, it’s good for deflecting from the need for common sense gun control and for distortions to claim that everyone not exactly like them are unhinged, but when it comes to actually HELPING PEOPLE and by extension all of society (including their precious economy that overwhelmingly favor the rich and powerful such as themselves), they want nothing to do with it 🤬
Because it is.
That’s what makes it so easy to argue. :)
