I grew up on the Gulf Coast and the industrial smell is a price you pay for jobs for the asking, prosperity and upward mobility.Big deal Cosponsoring a bill is just saying "me too" to somebody else's work, and cosponsoring something that hasn't passed, or even been voted on yet is nothing for a congressman. You might note that I'm not the one who brought up the subject of names, but it's childish and hypocritical for you to whine about one but easily accept the other. Both candidates have used their respective nick names since childhood. Here's a picture of little Beto, (on the right with untied shoe) with his name on his shirt. Quit whining about it.

You are the one who brought up the bills and then blatantly lied about it. Lied when the truth would have served you better.
the only reason to lie about something is to cya or with criminal intent. The only intent you have to defraud voters with lies.
Nicknames are common here in the Lone Star State calling someone Flaco, Turtle, Possum, Waco, Gordito, Kraut, Billybob has
little more meaning than I like you, or that is what you said your name is. You are the one making a big deal out of nicknames
and that is the reason I doubt you are a Texan. Take your yankee ass back where it belongs among the carpetbaggers you don't deserve to breathe Texas air.
The only reason you can breathe Texas air is the Environmental Protection Agency.
Come on out here to the plains and enjoy the same quality air I enjoye when I lived in Micronesia. The wind blows all the time and is fresh 24/7. The EPA has caused as much harm as it has done good and it has done good around the channel, and toward the gulf.
The gulf coast, where most of the people live near refineries and chemical plants, doesn't enjoy the fresh air like you do in West Texas.
What do you have without the chemical plants, refinerys, paper mills, industrialization, ship channel be careful what you wish for you might get it. Some folks make a career of looking a gift horse in the mouth.
I don't know how long ago you 'grew up on the Gulf Coast', but air quality in the 1970's in that area, was much worse than today, and the EPA is the reason. That said, Houston air quality is once again deteriorating due to inattention.
The profit motive doesn't care about pollution, and air doesn't respect state lines.
