That is the Mothers Against Greg Abbott movement that is fighting against the reactionary Texas governor and the state’s highly restrictive abortion laws.
Governor Abbott will face Beto O’Rourke in November in Texas’s gubernatorial election. Axios reported that although Abbott has more funding overall, O’Rourke has raised more campaign money than the incumbent since February, reflecting the ever-tightening race. In December, only 37% of voters said they supported O’Rourke, while this month, 43% said they supported him.

Holms says
Because it’s just a name.
Tethys says
Beto is the male diminutive of Roberto.
Beta is the second letter of the alphabet.
Betta is a fish.
Raging Bee says
O’Rourke certainly sounds more manly…and more Randian too.
Intransitive says
O’Rourke was a member of Cult of the Dead Cow. That’s good enough for me.
