Five Austin City Council members are proposing a resolution this Thursday, May 2nd council agenda to flagrantly ignore current state law by refusing to use city resources to enforce Senate Bill (SB) 14, a bill passed last legislative to protect gender-confused Texas children from irreversible medical harm. Texas Values Action was a leading organization supporting SB 14’s passage during the 88th Texas Legislature.

We need our supporters from the Austin area to show up and speak against this resolution.
