More on the Bad CPS Bill in Texas

See Grits.

See also Sore Toes, who, like Grits, links to Tim Lambert's site, (President of the Texas Home School Coalition). Mr. Lambert states:

On the last day of the session, Representative Patrick Rose, chairman of the
House Human Services Committee, offered a floor amendment to SB 1440 (another bill by Watson), which was on the Local and Consent Calendar. The amendment offered by Rose was the language of committee substitute SB 1064, and since SB 1440 was considered non-controversial and the sponsor of the bill (Rose) agreed to the amendment, it was adopted on a voice vote, and the final language of SB 1440 includes the committee substitute language of SB 1064.

And Toes also tells us:

"Jerri Lynn Ward has an excellent suggestion, in a comment at FLDS.ws:

We believe that the vast majority of House members did not know that the
amendment was slipped into the bill as it happened on the last day of the session in a very surreptitious manner.
We are urging Texans to call their state reps to point this out and to ask that those reps call Gov. Perry about the subterfuge.

I can send 20 emails to Governor Perry and it won't matter one bit. This is a time for TEXANS to stand up.

Call your state representatives and ask them if they knew what they were voting for, when they voted for SB 1440.

Call your Governor. Tell him to veto SB 1440, according to the provisions of Article 4, Section 14 of the Texas Constitution."

the bill was sent to the governor on June 3. There are 20 days before it's too late- and the bill will take effect. Don't wait. Contact him now. Texas is trying to legalize the YfZ raids and make them something EVERYBODY is subject to.
