Not Getting All Texts on MacBook Messages

Some types of texts are coming through on my iPhone but not my MacBook, including two-factor authentication texts and those from businesses that send from something other than a phone number (e.g., "266278"). How can I get those other texts on my MacBook, as well?

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
