Republicans claim their bill is meant to protect women, but they can’t answer how it would protect women who might be mistaken for men in public or address the potential for “bathroom police” to harass women.
They dodge the tough questions!
Watch House Democrats hold them accountable.

We stand here today because of the strength, vision, and fight of women. Today, on Women's Equality Day, we celebrate the generations of women who came before us, who sacrificed all they could, with faith that future generations would live in a more equal world. 👏💗

Republicans ended testimony early, though hundreds showed up and registered against SB 8 and HB 7. So, @donnahoward and I are hosting a “People’s Hearing” in the TX Capitol Auditorium. Right now.
Please know that we are listening, and we are here to fight for you.
I strongly oppose SB8.

HB4, the racially motivated congressional districts that Trump ordered Abbott and the Texas legislature to produce, is on the floor of the House today! Instead of the flood relief we were promised, we're fighting fascism from the House chamber. This fight isn't over.

Simultaneously, the Senate is rushing consideration of anti-trans, anti-woman, & anti-veteran bills.

Yesterday, Kim Batchelor drove from Dallas to testify but was denied due to Capitol technological issues. The committee's failure to accommodate her shows how little Texas House Republicans value the voices of our neighbors. I urge to watch her testimony and hear her opposition to HB4.

This process has been a sham, even going back to June when the rumor of a special session on maps was first reported.
This map is a disgrace to all Texans, drawn to silence voices of Brown and Black Texans, and shield Epstein’s best pal Trump from accountability.
