Attorney General Ken Paxton issued the following statement after the Texas Senate State Affairs Committee held a hearing Wednesday examining interim charges meant to affirm First Amendment religious liberty protections in Texas:
“Religious liberty is the First Freedom established in the Bill of Rights, and the moral bedrock upon which our nation has been built. I commend the Texas Senate, Chairwoman Joan Huffman, and Lt. Gov. Patrick for holding this hearing and keeping a light shined on this important issue, working to assert these inalienable rights and protect the people of Texas from punishment for simply expressing their sincerely-held religious beliefs.”
In October, Attorney General Paxton sent a letter to Lt. Gov. Patrick with recommendations to further protect religious liberties. To view the letter click here: https://www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/files/epress/Patrick_-_Interim_Charges_on_Religious_Liberties_1.pdf
