In Texas, key health initiatives have encountered obstacles. Dementia research, food labeling, and ivermectin were among the priorities set by Republican leadership during the last legislative session. These initiatives have either become stuck in the courts or are still pending in the state rulemaking process.

Further information on the status of these health priorities is available from Houston Public Media. Details on the specific roadblocks and current progress of these initiatives can be found through Houston Public Media, providing updates on the developments in Texas' health priorities.
