Do you know the nightmare in Texas is starting with new legislation just announced by the GOP, because Trump won?

Thirty new bills will be introduced in the State House of Representatives to place the GOP ideological agenda into law. Ten are described by one of the local TV news of @abc13houston. "Houston may have gone blue, but Texas stayed red." They list the top 10 bills that will be introduced.

Here is what the news said:
   Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick's legislation filing for 2017--his quote:
   "Starting in 2017, we will have a friend in the White House who was clearly elected because the people of this country believe in conservative principles that have guided the way we govern in Texas---life, liberty, and lean government that promotes prosperity. I remain committed to those principles and legislative priorities that I am announcing today all reflect that commitment."

If you can find this article, please post it, so people can read about the 10 bills that are the top priority.

    Hello M:

    I don't see the list..  But a right wing back bencher here in Washington introduced a bill that CRIMINALIZES protest..  If Texas did something similar, take to the streets..  Write about it..  Paint about..  SCREAM about it.

    Nationally, I DO believe that Trump will MOVE against protest.  That's the time to PROTEST.  Yes, it's gonna get ugly.  Well, freedom AIN'T free.
