his rival, leaving such contacts up to his allies. O’Rourke said he’s now taking the fight to Abbott, a renowned political brawler who likes the contact.

RIGHT PHOTO -- Former congressman Beto O'Rourke spoke during his For the People, The Texas Drive for Democracy event on Tuesday, June 8, 2021, at Paul Quinn College in Dallas.
These culture-war topics are tried-and-true motivators for Republican base voters, and they are expected to still be key for them in November general election. In a March roundtable in Crockett, O’Rourke listened to residents concerned about health care in rural communities. According to O’Rourke, 26 hospitals in 23 Texas rural communities have closed.
Julie Ross, a Dallas health care and disability rights advocate, said O’Rourke should continue to press the health care issue, including the need for Texas officials to expand Medicaid and accept the federal dollars that would come to the state under the Affordable Care Act.
