Gina Hinojosa proposes sending every Texas household $1, 500 in her bid to oust Greg Abbott

· KRGV (NBC 5)

Gina Hinojosa, the Democratic candidate for Texas Governor, has proposed sending $1,500 to every Texas household if she defeats incumbent Greg Abbott in the upcoming election. Speaking in Houston, Hinojosa criticized the current government, claiming it burdens citizens instead of helping them. The initiative, which she calls a 'corruption tax refund,' would cost approximately $17 billion from the state's rainy day fund, which currently has $24.8 billion. Hinojosa's plan requires legislative approval and aims to provide immediate relief to struggling Texans while maintaining necessary reserves. Abbott, meanwhile, focuses on property tax cuts in his campaign.
