Statement summary

In an interview with Dasha Burns, Hinojosa says her "Pronouns" ad was directed at Greg Abbott and what she calls culture-war politics. She says Abbott had accused her of working with teachers "to try to trans kids" and says her campaign will not engage in those arguments.

“What I was trying to communicate is to both Greg Abbott and to the culture wars. You can shove it with your culture wars. He had just accused me of working with teachers to try to trans kids. It's just ridiculous, right? … And so that was to say, look, we're not doing your culture wars.”

Statement summary

Hinojosa's campaign ad criticized the scale and warrantless tracking of Texas's Flock network. It did not specify whether she would eliminate it or impose limits.
