SB 343 by Sen. Don Huffines would prevent cities in Texas from passing Non-Discrimination ordinances that protect LGBT people in employment, housing or public accommodations. Additionally, it restricts cities' ability to pass any ordinance that is broader than state law. Local elected officials are in the best position to know the best solutions to local problems: from water to flooding, from air quality to traffic control. Tell your State Senator to oppose SB 343 using our ACTION CENTER. We've made it easy! Just type in your address and a letter targeted specifically for your law maker will come up.
