⁠@@vivianatrevino6212actually, blame Rick Perry. We had an ice storm in 2011 that should have been enough to want to protect the grid from another ice storm. Abbott was the attorney general, so it’s not like he wasn’t aware of the issues. You could also blame George W Bush because that’s when Texas electricity was deregulated. You could also blame the actual hurricane itself, since even in blue states, when those hit, they lose power. …it’s just not for long. Couple days. Right now, it’s not about generating enough electricity, like what happened in 2021. The problem is actually about getting power to those homes with down lines. So really, I blame the storm for the downed lines. I blame republican officials for 2021.
