Since the beginning of the legislative session in January, Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and his conservative allies in the Texas Senate have been advancing bill after bill.
For example, legislation to make voter fraud a felony offense, provide for school choice for Texas families, end gender modification for minors, and ban critical race theory and diversity, equity and inclusion policies in public universities have all passed the state Senate.
Patrick touted the passage of such bills in a statement:
“The Texas Senate has now passed the strongest pushback on woke policies in higher education nationwide. For too long, academia has been poisoned by woke policies and faculty seeking to indoctrinate students. Professors did not believe we would push back on their advances, but they were wrong. Students should be taught how to think critically, not what to think.
