Gov. Greg Abbott falsely claims Texas schools providing litter boxes to student 'furries'

As he works overtime to sell school vouchers to Texans, Gov. Greg Abbott is ratcheting up his absurd claims about dysfunction in the state's public schools. In his latest attempt to paint public campuses as dens of depravity, the Republican governor told a group of pastors in Austin that some schools around the state are providing litter boxes for students who identify as furries, as first reported by the Houston Chronicle. "In some rural sections of school districts in the state of Texas, they have in their schools, what are called furries," Abbott said, according to the Chronicle.
