Texas House Bill 4623: "Relating to liability of public schools and professional school employees for certain acts or omissions involving students."

She still voted AGAINST the bill. One of only 6 votes against.

Meet Liam. School officials punished Liam for wearing a shirt that challenged the government’s narrative—a troubling example of free speech being censored. Don’t let your rights slip away. Get our FREE “Know Your Rights” guide and stand firm in your convictions.

@realmitchlittle If you are going to ask a gotcha question you should probably do some basic research to make sure you are not the one who in fact gets got.

In the last four years, I have reported on no fewer than 300 cases of s*xual abuse occurring within Texas public schools. This is only a drop in the bucket compared to the thousands of cases of children abused by school staff over decades. Some of these cases were mentioned in this Senate hearing, including one where a four-year-old child was sod0mized by school staff. Very few of the cases I have reported on ended with positive outcomes. Schools were emboldened to sweep many of these cases under the rug, turning off comments to prevent people from voicing their opinions, shutting down parents, silencing them, holding secret board meetings, and making covert decisions. Some schools were even caught in the act of erasing/hiding evidence, deleting footage and shredding documents. Many of the offenders were either kept on paid leave and allowed to return, or were passed from district to district with no accountability. Why? Because they are protected by immunity laws in the state of Texas. Some of this testimony is incredibly difficult to hear, but we owe it to these parents to ensure their voices are heard after being silenced by the very schools meant to protect their children. Thankfully, HB 4624, which will remove this immunity to hold public schools liable for these egregious cases, passed committee 11-0. The next step is to have this bill placed on the Senate intent calendar. Sadly, If it is not heard by the end of the day on Wednesday, it will be over. These parents deserve better. As a survivor myself and a parent of a child who has suffered this form of abuse, my heart breaks for them all. Please call your Texas Senator and urge them to support this bill and push to have it placed on the calendar. I ask that you like, share, and spread these testimonies. The more exposure, the more pressure we place on the Texas Senate. We all know this legislature has been disappointing for many so far. Let’s ensure something good comes out of this!
