Republicans keep saying businesses are fleeing California. Businesses open and close in every state, every year. In 2024 Texas lost 81,657 establishments and Florida lost 105,563. Nobody calls them failed states.

Republicans say California is failing. Last quarter California grew more than the twelve fastest-growing Republican-run states combined. Those twelve hold twice California’s economy. Three Republican states shrank: Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota. #California

Why do the poorest states keep electing Republicans, the party cutting their lifelines? Republicans cut Medicaid by roughly $900 billion. SNAP by $186 billion, the largest food-aid cut ever.
