Texas Values held a successful press conference as a part of our Women’s Privacy Day of Action where many of you spoke directly to legislators about the Texas Women’s Privacy Act.
But the work is not over yet! We are at the end of the week and Chairman Ken King still has not set a hearing for SB 240, the Texas Women’s Privacy Act, in House State Affairs Committee and time is running out!
Call Chairman Ken King’s office TODAY to ask for a hearing for SB 240!
