I’m an engineer that gets asked to go look at job opportunities there by randoms on LinkedIn.
I have a daughter, there is no way in hell I’d go there for a job. Even for a seven figure salary.
I don’t even think I’d take a remote role from Texas.
The company I work remotely for is headquartered in TX. It was actually in another state when I joined, and they consolidated to TX a few years ago.
They have a policy of helping relocate employees, no questions asked. One of my trans coworkers recently moved from Austin to California. I won’t be surprised to hear of more moves out of TX over time.
Boomer mother started going off about voting Trump because “illegals”.
“Nah, we handled that shit in Florida. Passed legislation scaring 'em right the fuck out of here. Of course our crops are rotting in the fields, we got no medical helpers, maids or janitors. But they left! Sure, there were 100 business owners interviewed saying they supported the bill, but didn’t think the consequences would work out like that. They need to hire real Americans. If they can find 'em for $5 an hour…”
We also got the “gay agenda” under control around here. Woke companies taking their convention business, and business in general, away, but at least we made a stand!
This is the reality GOP voters don’t want to confront. The migrants are the fucking backbone of America - moreso than anyone born in this country. If it doesn’t have an underclass to exploit, this country cannot be as successful as it has been. They provide the underpaid workforce that has allowed for wage stagnation to persist for decades.
LOL, that’s what I told mom. You want the benefits of the slave labor this country was built on? Then STFU.
I’m not in the US, I heard something that Florida did months ago. Is it still the case and causing issues?
So maybe start bankrolling the democrats?
But muh tax cuts
The DNC has ceded Texas to the GOP. Especially after Beto lost his bid for Governor on the heels of the Uvalde mass shooting and Abbott’s bungling of the aftermath. This state is owned by Republicans lock, stock, and barrel.
Once he said he will go for their guns it was over. He lost 54% to 43% he may have had a chance if he didn’t say that.
Woah there cowboy! Let’s not get too spur happy.
It’s almost like no one wants to live in a red state shithole, geez. What’s wrong with you people, they’re doing their best to make sure your kids are raised without critical thinking, science or history (whatever content suits the old shits in the state legislature is fine, though). Hell they even kicked a million kids off of Medicare this week. Why isn’t everyone flocking to this paradise, can’t you imagine how great it is?
You think?!
Well, if Republicans are ruining your business, you know how to (influence) vote with your money.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
It is currently illegal to have an abortion after a fetus has a heartbeat, which typically occurs around six weeks, often before the woman knows she is pregnant, unless there is a significant threat to the mother’s life.
Birth control and emergency contraceptives, such as Plan B, are distinct from the medications used for inducing abortion and continue to be legally accessible.
The plaintiffs in the Zurawski vs. Texas case are former patients who say that they were denied medically necessary abortions due to physicians being scared of potential legal ramifications.
The brief adds: “Because of those undeniable realities, businesses are now forced to confront this issue head on—not for moral or legal reasons—but to keep the lights on and people working, making money.”
"Texas’s confusing medical exceptions increase business costs, drive away talent, and threaten workforce diversity and well-being.
"Texas’ continuing economic expansion, well ahead of the United States as a whole for the fourth quarter in a row, is further proof that when given the freedom to aspire, businesses invest and people prosper.
The original article contains 758 words, the summary contains 175 words. Saved 77%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
complain to the oil men, they run your state… maybe go straight to the Saudis…
