Wendy Davis surrogate slams paraplegic opponent: 'He just rolls around'

Texas Democratic State Rep. Dawnna Dukes on Saturday accused Republican gubernatorial candidate Greg Abbot, a paraplegic, of thinking he can just “roll around” and deny voters in the Lone Star State the same right to sue for injury that he enjoyed when he lost his ability to walk.
“And then we have this guy who kind of just rolls around thinking that he can get tort reform for himself but take it away from everybody else in the state of Texas,” Dukes said this weekend at an event to support Democratic gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis.
A falling limb struck Abbott during a storm when he was 26 years old, paralyzing him from the waist down. He later sued and won millions in a settlement for lost wages — an outcome that Democrats now say is hypocritical, considering his subsequent support for tort reform and for caps on certain kinds of payouts in lawsuits.
