(🧵2/4) #HB2 aims to cut appraisal caps from 10% to 5% & give #propertytax relief through school M&O compression (which we support). We think more compression & adding a path to eliminating the tax altogether is not only possible but necessary for Texas Taxpayers! #txlege
(🧵3/4) For more on how all of the above can be done this #txlege session ⤵️

#DanBishop won the #NC09 election. Trump is taking credit for that--as well he should. Trump and Bishop share the same ugly homophobic and transphobic POV and it was support for Bishop's grotesque #HB2 that helped him win. charlotteobserver.com/opinion/editor…
We can claim that #DanBishop won because that #NC09 has always been a GOP seat, but really, this is about GOP support for discriminatory anti-LGBTQ, anti-queer and anti-trans bills. Folks like Bishop propose and promote them, as I wrote two years ago.

At some point we have to acknowledge that while racism and misogyny are a GOP backdrop, they raise money and thrive on their homophobic and transphobic attacks and those assaults on queer and trans people are behind their "religious freedom" bills.
