Dear Friends,

Next week is week 15 of the Texas Legislature - So many things happening, I=
don't even know where to begin. Let me first try to highlight what happen=
ed in week 14:

SB147 (Kolkhorst - bars Chinese ownership of TX land) was reported favorabl=
y out of Committee and will now go to the Senate for a vote

SB1070 (Hughes - withdraws from interstate voter registration crosscheck, k=
nown as ERIC) passed in the Senate and has been received in the House. (no =
committee assignment yet)

SB14 (Campbell - bans gender transitioning of children) passed the Senate, =
received in the House and assigned to Public Health Committee, chaired by S=
tephanie Klick (who has not been our friend in the past on this issue)

SB12 (Hughes - bans drag shows with children present) passed the Senate, re=
ceived in House and assigned to State Affairs.

SB1601 (Hughes - bans drag shows in public libraries) passed the Senate, re=
ceived in House, no committee assignment yet.

SB8 (Creighton - School Choice) the intro language was changed after reques=
t from RPT. Original language said =E2=80=9Crights granted under the laws=
of this state.=E2=80=9D New language says =E2=80=9Cthe fundamental rights=
granted to parents by their Creator and upheld by . . . the laws of this s=
tate.=E2=80=9D Big kudos to the RPT and Senator Creighton for making this =
fundamental change which recognizes the God given right of parents to raise=
their children. The bill has passed the Senate and has been received in th=
e House.

SB175 (Middleton-ban taxpayer funded lobbying) passed the Senate and has be=
en received in the House and assigned to State Affairs.

HB900 (Patterson - get the dirty books out of schools) has been sent to Cal=
endars Committee to schedule for a floor vote. BUT IT'S BEEN IN CALENDARS F=
OR A WEEK!

As you can see, the Senate is getting it done. Plenty of priority legislat=
ion getting moved. Now we have to move things in the House and time is run=
ning out. Don't forget the favorite excuse for not passing good legislatio=
n is "we ran out of time!" Don't let them get away with that. Time to put=
the pressure on the House members and Speaker Phelan.

ACTION FOR WEEK 15, APRIL 17 - 22

First - Contact Senator Creighton and thank him for being receptive to the =
language change in SB8. [email protected]. Phone # 512-4=
63-0104/

SB330 (Hall - protect the grid) is stuck in Business & Commerce Committee. =
This is a really important bill that would protect our electric grid from =
storms, EMP attacks, and other calamities. Please contact members of the Co=
mmittee and urge them to take a vote on it and move it out.

vote & move that one too. Banning gender modification of children is a TOP=
PRIORITY!

I know this is a lot! But there's even more.....

Thursday April 20th, the RPT is hosting an event for Banning Gender Modific=
ation of Children. In the morning visit House members=E2=80=99 offices to =
advocate for this priority. Then, in the afternoon, we hear from a wide co=
alition including legislators, grassroots groups and de-transitioners. We w=
ill meet from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m., at the Legislative Conference Center =
in the new Reagan Building on the Capitol Complex. No. TX Conservatives is=
hosting busses (free). Contact them for more information at their website=
.

Tuesday April 25th, two things happening. TTP Citizen Advocates will meet =
at 10 in Ag Commissioner Sid Miller's office (Sam Houston Building, 11th Fl=
oor) for a small training on Testifying at Hearings.

Also on the 25th - The RPT is collaborating with grassroots leaders, organi=
zations, religious groups, and churches across the state to come together o=
n April 25 for the Stop Sexualizing Texas Kids Day of Action and Prayer at =
the Texas State Capitol. It will be a full day of legislative action, brie=
fings, press conference, and end with a prayer service in the evening. NTX =
Conservatives will also have busses for this day. Use the link above to co=
ntact them.

For more action items, see Jill Glover's Leg Priority Report for 4/12/23.

If Education is your thing, see Education 911's action alerts for this week=
.

And lastly - Do you want gambling in Texas? Neither do we! Please view th=
is video about legislative efforts to bring gambling into Texas. Then sign=
the petition which we will be delivering to all House members and the Gove=
rnor on Tuesday. For more details on why we oppose, see the Texas Scorecar=
d Investigative Report on the subject. The stats will surprise you.

Watch Video

That's all for this week! (I know - you're thinking "that's enough") But =
the truth is, I could give you so much more. It's crunch time. The sessio=
n is over half finished, and any House bills that don't come out of Committ=
ees by next Thursday will probably die. Please join us on Tuesday April 18=
to do the work. We'll deliver petition signatures, and work the committee=
s mentioned above. We meet up in the Rotunda at 10 to get assignments and =
paperwork. Then come back on the 20th and 25th for those special action day=
s. Texas needs YOU!

Thank you for your diligence and dedication. I know I say this over and ov=
er, but it's true and worth repeating. I get to work with the best Patriot=
s and I thank God every day for each one of you, and the glory for any succ=
ess we have belongs to Him.

For God & Texas!

Fran Rhodes, President

Tired of getting so many emails? Please be patient!


We put the location in the subject of every event email so that you can eas=
ily delete without opening it, but you know what is a better idea? Forward=
the event to those you know in that area! We send all event emails to all=
subscribers because so many True Texans do just that... share the invites!=
We hope you will too, but if not, kindly just delete. No need to send in=
a complaint or unsubscribe. There truly is a method to our madness as we =
work hard to build the army across this great big state! Sometimes we send=
emails only to specific counties. If you want to update what counties are=
on your profile, please click here.
BONUS TIP: remove the "unsubscribe" line at the bottom of your email before=
you forward it! Otherwise the recipient may unsubscribe YOU!

Dear Friends,

Next week is week 15 of the Texas Legislature - So many things happening, I don't even know where to begin. Let me first try to highlight what happened in week 14:

SB147 (Kolkhorst - bars Chinese ownership of TX land) was reported favorably out of Committee and will now go to the Senate for a vote

SB1070 (Hughes - withdraws from interstate voter registration crosscheck, known as ERIC) passed in the Senate and has been received in the House. (no committee assignment yet)

SB14 (Campbell - bans gender transitioning of children) passed the Senate, received in the House and assigned to Public Health Committee, chaired by Stephanie Klick (who has not been our friend in the past on this issue)

SB12 (Hughes - bans drag shows with children present) passed the Senate, received in House and assigned to State Affairs.

SB1601 (Hughes - bans drag shows in public libraries) passed the Senate, received in House, no committee assignment yet.

SB8 (Creighton - School Choice) the intro language was changed after request from RPT. Original language said “rights granted under the laws of this state.” New language says “the fundamental rights granted to parents by their Creator and upheld by . . . the laws of this state.” Big kudos to the RPT and Senator Creighton for making this fundamental change which recognizes the God given right of parents to raise their children. The bill has passed the Senate and has been received in the House.

SB175 (Middleton-ban taxpayer funded lobbying) passed the Senate and has been received in the House and assigned to State Affairs.

HB900 (Patterson - get the dirty books out of schools) has been sent to Calendars Committee to schedule for a floor vote. BUT IT'S BEEN IN CALENDARS FOR A WEEK!

As you can see, the Senate is getting it done. Plenty of priority legislation getting moved. Now we have to move things in the House and time is running out. Don't forget the favorite excuse for not passing good legislation is "we ran out of time!" Don't let them get away with that. Time to put the pressure on the House members and Speaker Phelan.

ACTION FOR WEEK 15, APRIL 17 - 22

First - Contact Senator Creighton and thank him for being receptive to the language change in SB8. [email protected]. Phone # 512-463-0104/

SB330 (Hall - protect the grid) is stuck in Business & Commerce Committee. This is a really important bill that would protect our electric grid from storms, EMP attacks, and other calamities. Please contact members of the Committee and urge them to take a vote on it and move it out.

Contact members of the House Public Health Committee. Ask them to hold a hearing on SB14 (Campbell - bans gender transitioning of children) immediately. Also the House bill to ban gender modification (HB1686) had a hearing on 3/28, but is still pending in committee (that's 3 weeks!). Ask them to vote & move that one too. Banning gender modification of children is a TOP PRIORITY!

I know this is a lot! But there's even more.....

Thursday April 20th, the RPT is hosting an event for Banning Gender Modification of Children. In the morning visit House members’ offices to advocate for this priority. Then, in the afternoon, we hear from a wide coalition including legislators, grassroots groups and de-transitioners. We will meet from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m., at the Legislative Conference Center in the new Reagan Building on the Capitol Complex. No. TX Conservatives is hosting busses (free). Contact them for more information at their website.

Tuesday April 25th, two things happening. TTP Citizen Advocates will meet at 10 in Ag Commissioner Sid Miller's office (Sam Houston Building, 11th Floor) for a small training on Testifying at Hearings.

Also on the 25th - The RPT is collaborating with grassroots leaders, organizations, religious groups, and churches across the state to come together on April 25 for the Stop Sexualizing Texas Kids Day of Action and Prayer at the Texas State Capitol. It will be a full day of legislative action, briefings, press conference, and end with a prayer service in the evening. NTX Conservatives will also have busses for this day. Use the link above to contact them.

For more action items, see Jill Glover's Leg Priority Report for 4/12/23.

If Education is your thing, see Education 911's action alerts for this week.

And lastly - Do you want gambling in Texas? Neither do we! Please view this video about legislative efforts to bring gambling into Texas. Then sign the petition which we will be delivering to all House members and the Governor on Tuesday. For more details on why we oppose, see the Texas Scorecard Investigative Report on the subject. The stats will surprise you.

Watch Video

That's all for this week! (I know - you're thinking "that's enough") But the truth is, I could give you so much more. It's crunch time. The session is over half finished, and any House bills that don't come out of Committees by next Thursday will probably die. Please join us on Tuesday April 18 to do the work. We'll deliver petition signatures, and work the committees mentioned above. We meet up in the Rotunda at 10 to get assignments and paperwork. Then come back on the 20th and 25th for those special action days. Texas needs YOU!

Thank you for your diligence and dedication. I know I say this over and over, but it's true and worth repeating. I get to work with the best Patriots and I thank God every day for each one of you, and the glory for any success we have belongs to Him.

For God & Texas!

Fran Rhodes, President
