The passage of House Bill 12 by the Texas House of Representatives is an affront to the dignity of Texans. It ignores our State’s rich heritage and cultural diversity, and an overstepping of the appropriate authority of state government. As Bishops, we are concerned for all of the people in our communities. This bill ultimately diminishes the dignity and safety of all people.
