Sen. Dina Neal's bill to limit corporate home ownership and help tackle the housing crisis facing Nevada has been added to the special session! This bill would cap the number of homes a corporation can buy in a single calendar year. #SB10 #NVLeg

Pious Paxton decrees - post these laws or else! As he breaks many of them himself. What an absolute clownshow.
As a Christian, I hold the 10 Commandments as a strong moral foundation... but I find the Senate Bill 10 in Texas to be a clear step towards establishing an official state religion, which is unpatriotic and un-American.
In the Gospel, faith was not coerced.

Hey @decaturish.bsky.social
Maybe have Jim contact me the next time he tries to explain to stakeholders what withholding federal funding means for their kids. The article regarding funding is WAY TOO DETAILED for parents! Just say #SB10 & then parents know

Doesn't bode well for Texas' new and nearly identical law #SB10
BREAKING: A bill requiring public school classrooms to display the Ten Commandments is on its way to the governor's desk.
If Gov. Abbott signs #SB10 into law, we will sue.
Students and families should decide how to practice faith, not the government. Full stop.
Putting a Christian and Jewish version of religion on the walls of schools paid for by everyone, including non-Christians and non-Jews, is unfair and un-American.

#txlege, #SB10 must not be passed. It handcuffs teachers and infects curriculum with just one doctrine, when many beliefs seek to advance the same values.
When will we see a bill that will insert Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, B’hai, and other religions’ tenets into the classrooms?
#SB10 aka Ten Commandments Bill will have a full floor vote tomorrow morning Wed 21May. If it passes that, it goes to the governor’s desk to be signed. Contact your TX state rep & Tx state Senator to voice your opposition to this bs. Do it today if you can.

Texas lawmakers are trying to force public schools to display the Ten Commandments.
The same politicians trying to control what students think — by banning books and censoring curricula — are once again trying to dictate what students worship.
Urge your lawmakers to vote NO on #SB10! 📢 #txlege
Jonathan Covey of Texas Values just testified that it is their position that we should have golden calves in every public school classroom. seems like something the largest organization for panty sniffers in Texas would support. #txlege #SB10
I mean... really... they're just worshipping a graven image here. these 10 Commandments posters aren't any better than a golden calf. #txlege #SB10
Denny's? they get Denny's? well... I don't even know where there is one in Austin anymore so if that gets them the eff out of town that would be good. #txlege #SB10
that asshole wants it to "not be religious coercion, but also be the common culture". WTF? #txlege #SB10
Matt Krause just tried to say it "wasn't his fault the founders used the 10 Commandments to write the founding documents". the only one that has been quoted today is the Declaration of Independence which was heavily cribbed from John Locke who was a... DEIST, MAGA FOCKERS! #txlege #SB10
the founders just MAGICALLY managed to stumble upon documents that sounded exactly like famous deist John Locke while basing them off the 10 Commandments. 🙃 #txlege #SB10
how many wars have been fought over each others' gods? there's a lot of evidence that gods do not have a wholesome influence. the Crusades, Spanish Inquisition, Witch Trials, schools for Native children, justifications for slavery, and on and on. fuck your 10 Commandments poster. #txlege #SB10
new rule:
if a child is not old enough to learn about safe sex at public school, they are not old enough to learn about the 10 Commandments at public school.
same with posters about either thing. #txlege #SB10
could you put your faith tradition back in your pants, Matt Krause? there are children around. #txlege #SB10
you’d offer more than thoughts and prayers when there’s a mass shooting, you worthless hack. 5/5 #txlege #SB10
and it is CHEAPENING your faith and your god. have fun with your dime store god on your own time. you wouldn’t know good morals if they walked up and punched you in the face or… 4/5 #txlege #SB10
so doing harm to our fellow human beings? BAD PLAN. and forcing your faith on other human beings is harmful. it's treating them the way you do not want to be treated. 3/5 #txlege #SB10
a good reason to not kill each other without bringing deities into it is: basic survival. we're a social species. none of us does it on our own. some of us do it with a belief in God, some of us don't--but all of us do it with our fellow human beings. 2/5 #txlege #SB10
Candy Noble is advised that telling kids that they shouldn't kill each other "because God is watching" IS about you and others who need that motivation. it's indoctrination. 1/5 #txlege #SB10
Leo-Wilson is advised this bill is disrespectful at any hour. the founders were famous deists. they could have been talking about Gaia in the Declaration for all you know. she fits. #txlege #SB10
It's already passed in the Texas Senate, but there's a hearing about a bill #SB10 that would mandate the Ten Commandments be displayed in every public school classroom happening in a House Committee. Thread on faith leaders speaking out against it earlier:
Reverend Hayden Paul: Says he opposes #SB10 because Texans are a people of deep faith, and deep freedom and we should respect both
