    This is Sarah Weddington, Kay Bailey Hutchison, and I in the Texas House in 1973. That same year, at 26 years old, Sarah went before the Supreme Court and successfully argued Roe v. Wade.
    Reps. Johnson, Weddington, and Hutchison in the Texas House Chamber.

    I am a native Texan — born and raised here, educated here, and in my 15th term representing TX-30. Not once have I heard anyone here use the reprehensible and insensitive “saying” that @RepChipRoy is referencing. Texans are better than that. Americans are better than that.
