Can't Respond to Group Texts from my Mac

I can receive group messages from a particular group on both my iphone and my mac pro, but I am only able to respond from my cell. On my mac, there isn't even a space to enter my response (I can, however, initiate a text to the same group from my mac.) I can't find any differences in the preferences/settings. What am I doing wrong?

Mac Pro, macOS 10.15
