It's time to stand up for American Indian/Native Studies in Texas! We just signed a @esntx2 petition: If the AI/NS course is not added to the SBOE agenda this April, the review process could be put on hold indefinitely. #TexasforAINS #AINSNow Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

No Texan should be discriminated against based on their natural hair. Proud to sign the CROWN Act into law today to prohibit discrimination based on textures & hairstyles historically associated with race. I thank Rep. Bowers & Sen. Miles for getting this to my desk.

Texas officially passed The CROWN Act and became the 22nd state to end race-based hair discrimination. The signing of the CROWN Act in Texas is a major win! Thank you to the many people who have worked so hard on this entire CROWN movement. #PassTheCROWN #Dove #TheCROWNAct
