AUSTIN, Texas (LifeSiteNews) — Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott on Monday signed four new “transformative” education laws giving “more rights” to parents and cutting “inappropriate or vulgar materials” from school libraries.
“The House and Senate did a great job to provide transformative changes for education in the state of Texas,” Gov. Abbott, who recently signed a measure banning mutilating transgender surgeries and destructive drugs for minors, said in a press release ahead of the Monday signing.
Abbott said that the new legislation “transforms school curriculum, improving it for Texas parents, students, and teachers” and will get “inappropriate or vulgar materials out of our schools.”
