HB 956 a Direct Attack on Parental Rights
Tim Lambert2023-05-10T21:29:20+00:00The Texas Legislative session continues to have plenty of action on the parental rights front!

CPS is a governmental agency tasked with the responsibility of investigating and intervening in cases of child abuse and neglect.

Halfway Through the Legislative Session, We Are Making Progress

The deadline for filing bills has come and gone – at the forefront of bills filed concerns parental choice in education. The Family Freedom Project is prioritizing a constitutional amendment that would protect the right of parents to make decisions for their children, including in the realm of education. Through our sister organization, the Texas Home School Coalition (THSC), we are also prioritizing a constitutional amendment that would specifically protect homeschools and private schools from state regulation. This is the year of parental rights in the Texas Legislature. [...]
