Here's @GeneforTexas on which bills he's working to pass and which he's eyeing with extreme caution.
Bills by Penny Morales of D148 in northern #Houston focus on the environment and families.
I'm in the Governor's office today as Tate Reeves prepares to sign HB 1125 into law. It will ban gender-affirming healthcare for trans youth.
Reeves is going on about side effects of gender transition drugs, which are well documented and known about in the trans community. He says conservatives are under attack from the left for trying to question trans rights by being called transphobic.
