Texas House Speaker Joe Straus said Tuesday that lawmakers in the Capitol's lower chamber would seek to restore funding for disabled children's in-home therapy services during the upcoming legislative session, potentially reversing the state's course in an emotionally fraught, year-long legal battle."It did not work, and it will be addressed in the supplemental budget," Straus said of the payment cuts.He said the cuts were "well intentioned" but that "maybe they were a mistake."State lawmakers in 2015 ordered a $350 million cut to the amount that Medicaid, the federal-state insurance program for the poor and disabled, pays speech, physical and occupational therapists who serve medically fragile children.
