The #TX map is dead, for now. I think the #SCOTUS will deny any appeal.
The #CA ne map is unassailable because it was passed via an overwhelming plebiscite.
The error in #Texas was bypassing the people.
In #CA, #WeThePeople chose our path...we believe in democracy & the #TXLegislature does not.
neurodivergentrebel > Texas m A major change in Texas' involuntary commitment law will take effect September 1, 2025, adding "anosognosia" (the inability to recognize or understand the severity of one's own mental illness) as a valid reason for cops to detain people for mental health evaluations (if they "believe that inability could lead to harm"). This expands the grounds for emergency detention (beyond the previously required "substantial risk of serious harm"). Every article I find about this is paywalled.
