Texas' controversial 'bathroom bill' cleared its first hurdle — here's what you need to know about it

A controversial "bathroom bill" in Texas cleared its first hurdle on Wednesday, easily passing through a legislative committee after a marathon session of testimony that started a full day earlier.

The Republican-backed bill would require transgender people to use the public bathrooms and facilities that match the sex on their birth certificates, regardless of their gender identity.

Much like a similar law passed last year in North Carolina, the proposal has angered Texas business groups and advocates of LGBT rights, and has become a political flashpoint in the state.



Pictured above... assholes who don't want to do real work for their state.

Her name is Lois Kolkhorst. She is guided spiritually. She used to be my state representative when I lived in Brenham. I actually paid a visit to her office when I lived there.

I don't know what my current state representative looks like, but I know his last name and that he is another Republican scumbag. I have bad luck.
