· KRGV (NBC 5)
Gina Hinojosa, the Democratic candidate for Texas Governor, has proposed a plan to send $1,500 to every Texas household if she wins against incumbent Greg Abbott in November. Speaking in Houston, Hinojosa criticized the current government, claiming it burdens citizens rather than helping them. The initiative, estimated to cost $17 billion, would draw from the state's rainy day fund, which currently holds $24.8 billion. Hinojosa aims to address the affordability crisis and believes her proposal could garner bipartisan support among lawmakers. Meanwhile, Abbott focuses on property tax cuts in his campaign, leading Hinojosa by about 6 percentage points in recent polls.
