This ad has caused some controversy with some people saying that it was done in poor taste considering the fact that her Republican opponent, Greg Abbott, is wheelchair bound.
But for what’s it’s worth, I agree with this ad and the purpose it serves. Although the optics may be debatable, the facts presented in the ad are undeniable. Greg Abbott used the system to get compensation for an unfortunate event that left him disabled, but he fought others trying to use that same system for their benefit.
“In 1984, Greg Abbott sought out and received justice following a horrible injury, rightly so…receiving millions of dollars. And I’m glad, he deserved justice for the terrible tragedy that he endured,” Davis said at her Fort Worth, Texas, field office. “But then he turned around and built his career working to deny the very same justice that he received to his fellow Texans rightly seeking it for themselves.”
