Each day our fundamental liberties are under direct attack, including our First Amendment freedom of religion. During the 84th Legislative Session I proudly Co-Authored legislation designed to further safeguard the protection of religious liberties from infringement. Moreover, I fought for the passage of the "Pastor Protection Act," which shields pastors and clergy from being forced to perform certain acts that may violate their religious beliefs. We should never rest and must always remain vigilant in our efforts to preserve and protect religious liberties in the State of Texas.
