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! A few weeks ago, the Family Freedom Project (FFP) gave testimony in the Texas House Juvenile Justice and Family Issues (JJFI) against HB 956 which is a broad and direct attack on the fundamental rights of parents to raise their children as they see fit.

This bill has been filed every session for more than a decade with the purpose [...]
Update on Parental Rights Constitutional Amendments

Halfway Through the Legislative Session, We Are Making Progress
Haley Skrnich2023-03-31T20:20:50+00:00We have officially passed the halfway point of the 88th Texas Legislative Session. The deadline for filing bills has come and gone – at the forefront of bills filed concerns parental choice in 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. [...]
