Re: “Council approves budget of $4.75B — Plan includes slight tax-rate drop, higher fees,” Thursday Metro & Business story. Some may read this and think “Wo...

Readers would like more transparency on how taxes work in city budgets; say Paxton’s wife helping him shows a woman is needed as attorney general; wish GOP voters wouldn’t vote for election deniers; and discuss maternal mortality in Texas.

Show an example of what that means when their property value increases x amount and the new tax rate decreases x amount. It will show your actual tax expenses are increasing. Well, it’s obvious to me he thinks women should handle the hard stuff, so I say we all vote for a woman, namely Rochelle Garza, to replace him as attorney general this November.The judges, trial and appellate, along with pass-the-buck prosecuting attorneys are the actual persons making a mockery of our judicial system. They have juggled the hot potato securities fraud case of Ken Paxton for seven long years now. It is an embarrassment to our legal system.

I agree with these two letters to the editor. I also feel forgotten or shunned by the Republican Party. I have voted Republican since the 1972 Nixon/McGovern race. In 2018, researchers reported Texas’ maternal mortality rates were the worst in the country. Gov. Greg Abbott tweeted, “Critics of the Texas maternal mortality rate were just lying. It’s about 1/10 of 1%. Facts matter.”

Postponing release of current information and focusing on procedures and methods of counting deaths rather than on preventing them delay life-saving changes in maternal health care.
