With the exception of Representative Louis Gohmert (TX-01), every single Republican from the Texas delegation of the U. S House of Representatives voted to fund Obamacare. They even broke their own rules to do it.
From Yid With Lid via CNS News:
“Its nice that the GOP keeps passing bills to repeal Obamacare, but Senate Democrats will not pass such a bill and the president will never sign it. According to the Constitution it is the House that controls spending, if Boehner really wanted to kill Obamacare he could refuse to fund it. Today the house passed a resolution that will guarantee the funding of Obamacare and except for ten brave souls, every Republican Congressman Voted to Approve Obamacare today, and they broke their own rules to do it.
The House Republican leaders today will rush through a vote on a 269-page $982-billion continuing resolution (CR) to fund the federal government for the remainder of fiscal 2013 in direct violation of a pledge they made to the American people to post bills online for at least 72 hours before voting on them.
The vote funded Obamacare and took place less than two days after the bill was placed on line.
That is a little less than 47 hours after they posted it online for review by members and the public.”
Ted Poe. John Culberson. Pete Olson. Randy Weber. Kevin Brady. Michael McCaul. Joe Barton. Jeb Hensarling. Michael Burgess. Steve Stockman. Kay Granger….here’s a link to those in the Texas delegation.
And a link to the continuing resolution they voted on.
As Neal Meyer and Felicia Cravens constantly ask “what are you gonna do about it?”

I think it's outrageous! Has ANYone asked these Reps WHY they voted to fund Obamacare?
