PRO-TAXPAYER POSITION
Support
Senate Journal Page: 785

SB 1601 seeks to deny state funding (i.e. taxpayer money) from being given to municipal libraries that host events like “Drag Queen Story Hour”. We should seek to promote the health, public safety, and well-being of our youngest Texans. For these reasons, TFR supports SB 1601.
