Governor invites Texas healthcare professionals to New Mexico - "Free to Provide" campaign highlights reproductive health freedom - Office of the Governor - Michelle Lujan Grisham

SANTA FE –Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham today announced a new initiative to encourage medical professionals in Texas to consider relocating to New Mexico.

The “Free to Provide” campaign includes the deployment of billboards and full-page advertisements in five major Texas newspapers to highlight New Mexico’s commitment to protecting the full spectrum of health care, including abortion access.

In July, six billboards with the slogan “Free to Provide” were placed in strategic locations around the Houston Medical Center encouraging healthcare professionals to consider relocating to New Mexico. On Sunday, the campaign expanded to include full-page ads in the Houston Chronicle, Dallas Morning News, San Antonio Express-News, Austin American-Statesman and Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

They'll sue to shut the barn door after the barn's already empty.

Texas is going to be devastated politically, culturally and with its citizens' lives due to their own right-wing lunatic policies, but they have never signaled that there's the slightest chance these things will stop without a revolution. I know people from Texas--good, bright, strong people who are fleeing authoritarian oppression of every kind to a place where their politics will be accepted. They're doing what they have to to survive, but every Texas refugee who leaves only strengthens the right wing there.

I wish I knew what could stop it.

Working to make Texas Healthcare 50th in the nation. Although I think they are at 49th currently so won't be much of a fall.
