Today, #SB8, Texas’s “Bathroom Bill,” goes into effect. This cruel law aims to make the lives of transgender Texans more difficult than they already are. This law will only cause MORE paranoia in public spaces and lead to discrimination against people who don’t conform to gender stereotypes. #txlege

The Bathroom Bill Arrives In Texas There were many horrible, nasty and plainly false statements made. But one member’s speech truly stood out

Greg Abbott signed #SB8 into law today -- meaning it will go into effect on December 4, 2025. From our earlier coverage of what happened during the special session to pass this anti-trans bathroom bill:

Call your reps! Tell them NOT to support #SB8. Tell them NOT to Support #HB7. These assaults on trans persons rights and on women's rights and healthcare will not go on without a fight.

common sense is pedestrian. it should cover how to use a bathroom stall, but Orr can’t even figure that out. so she doesn’t even have common sense. #txlege #SB8

Christian nationalism is steering the #txlege GOP today…policing bodies, bathrooms, and forcing pregnancies. It’s predatory, menacing surveillance masquerading as policy. As Rep Vince Perez said, it’s #SickAndTwisted

Earlier tonight, the gallery was cleared in the Texas House because of protesters speaking out against the anti-trans bathroom bill #SB8. It passed a second reading, but things are on hold for a dinner break.

Bill passes, 86-43.

And I am ending my coverage! Please note, HB 7, an anti-abortion bill, is slated to be considered some time later today. And please please take care of yourself if you watched this horror show live. Live no matter what. I love you. #sb8 #txlege

Rep. Jolanda Jones (D-147): "It's not about safety, it's about shame... #sb8 discriminates against a class of people who are constitutionally protected. It targets them. It stigmatizes them. It criminalizes them. And when we legislate hate, people get hurt."

Rep. @jon-rosenthaltx.bsky.social is right. #SB8 would not just harm transgender Texans, but subjects ALL WOMEN to government “investigation” of their genitals. We don’t need the government in our bathrooms. #txlege

Rep. Venton Jones tells the horrific story of Passion Star, who endured multiple rapes, sexual assaults, and beatings while being housed in a male prison in Texas. #SB8 will subject transgender people to needless violence and discrimination. #txlege

Jones is talking about how Passion Star was repeatedly sexually assaulted, because #sb8 also would force trans women in men's prisons. She was "beaten, raped, and threatened with death."

"And members laugh."

I hate you Jerry Jones!

I hate you Jerry Jones!

Points of order are still happening on the Texas House floor, which is why the anti-trans bathroom bill #SB8 is taking so long. In the mean time, Jerry Jones remains the worst!!!

Whoa, that amendment was insane. Rep. Toth looking to bankrupt our political subdivisions and state agencies or to generate a retirement fund bounty hunting. #txlege #sb8

Rep. Moody is back at the Speaker's desk to debate his point of order ending all movement on #sb8 in the #txlege, claiming the bill is too broad.

“I heard the bill author say they weren’t sure if they were here to protect trans rights, but we are. I don’t want anyone to go home today thinking that they are not wanted or loved. Because that is not where we stand. Not in Texas.”

Thank you, Rep. Nicole Collier. #txlege #SB8

“Do trans women and trans men not deserve the same privacy and protection as cis women and girls do?”

This happened earlier in the debate over the anti-trans bathroom bill #SB8 in the Texas House. These folks ain't subtle.

Democrats have been offering several amendments to the anti-trans bathroom bill, but they are all being voted down. Rep. Zwiener now offering a "free to pee" amendment and saying anybody who is for small government should support it #SB8

“Do you intend to run trans people out of the state of Texas?”

“No. Just out of the bathroom.”
