AUSTIN – Gina Hinojosa parades around Texas claiming she wants to make the Lone Star State more affordable, but her voting record tells a very different story. During her nearly 10 years in the Texas House of Representatives, Hinojosa voted to strip Texans of their hard-earned money to fund her radical socialist wish list.
“Gina Hinojosa is lying to Texans. Her latest socialist giveaway reeks of desperation and leaves Texans stuck with the bill. To pay for her woke gimmick, Job Killer Gina will reach deeper into Texans’ pockets with taxes, taxes, and more taxes, putting jobs and Texans’ future opportunity at risk. Her voting record proves it: Gina has never met a tax hike she didn’t like. She is far too radical for Texas.”
