Hopefully they will get there like the rest of the US.

From the kprc tv website (thanks, texas towlie!).

Proposition 15 (SJR 34) — Codify parental rights in the Constitution

Purpose: Make parents’ rights to raise and educate children a fundamental constitutional right.

What it would do: Establish parents as the primary decision-makers for their children’s education, healthcare, and upbringing, giving their authority constitutional protection.

Supporters say: Protects family autonomy and parental authority.

Opponents say: Could make it harder to protect children and enforce public health measures.

Impact if it passes: Parents could challenge school policies made without their approval.

The stupid book ban stuff is the reason New Braunfels shuttered all its high school libraries.

I think many of us have seen what "parental rights" in action really is: people who claim to be fundamentalist christians, who are
really anti-vaxxers and
anti-educationalists wanting to keep children ignorant, ill and abused.

Why in the sam hill can’t they “fix” things by just, y’know, passing laws?

That texas sun done fried your brain!!

(Not making fun of you, just the idea of the mostly repub texass legislature actually working for the good of texans...🙃

If you have to call special sessions all the time...🙄

Yesterday I saw breakdowns by county for 2 propositions. Only Travis County went against the other 250-something counties. I'd been so proud of Travis, with voting lines out the door of the building. Can we secede?
