Happy #PrideMonth from your #TxHouseLGBTQCaucus!. This session has been incredibly difficult for #LGBTQIA+ folks. We’re exhausted & disappointed by the dangerous & cruel legislation we saw in the #txlege. We celebrate the #QueerJoy each one of us brings to this world.

Thank you @ronereynolds for detailing the history of "separate but equal" rhetoric & its usage in the attacks on #TransTexans. #HB32 & #SB7 are blatant attempts to ban trans folks from Texas & your #TxLGBTQCaucus will always fight against bills harming our community. #txlege

“We have community. Only light drives out darkness and only love drives out hate” Rep. Anchia tells us what being an ally means to him this #PrideMonth . #txlege #txhouselgbtqcaucus.
This Pride Month came in the wake of one of the most hostile anti-LGBTQ sessions in Texas history. But through it all, our community remains the strongest force for change—and no law can ever take that away. Let’s carry on the fight for love & equality. #HappyPrideMonth 🌈
