Original Note:
This post insinuates that Abbott received a medical malpractice settlement that he has now capped. While it’s true that he received a settlement in the 1980s, it was not a medical malpractice case, rather it was related to a tree falling on him and paralyzing him in his 20s. https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2013/08/03/greg-abbott-has-received-6-million-from-suit-over-accident-that-disabled-him/
