Greg Abbott's Ad Says Gina Hinojosa 'Voted to Allow for Parents to Be Prosecuted for Child Abuse.' In 2022, Abbott Ordered Child-Abuse Investigations of Parents Over Their Trans Kids.

Abbott's new 'Transition Your Kids – or Face Prosecution' ad rests on Hinojosa's vote against HB 1106, a bill saying it isn't child abuse for a parent to refuse a child's pronouns. Voting no on it allowed nothing — it passed, and Abbott signed it. In 2022, Abbott himself ordered the state to investigate parents of transgender kids for child abuse.
