State veto blocks Crystal City clinic grant in Texas
Gov. Smith vetoed a federal grant for Crystal City planning and clinic staffing citing doubts about delivering meaningful health services. The move follows scrutiny by medical professionals and budget officials over 16 months with no guaranteed patient care. Other vetoed Texas grants include Laredo dental health integration and a pair of approved funds to Dallas and San Antonio groups aiding minority communities.
