New Virginia bill HB1707, if passed, would hijack suicide laws to mandate teachers out trans students to parents.

'that such student is at imminent risk of suicide, --or that such student is self-identifying as a gender that is different than his biological sex--'

#HB1707 is about treating all public schools equally. Public charters are part of the public school system.

#HB1707 is about fairness. Please support it, its not about special treatment. Senator Angela Paxton

🚨BAD BILL ALERTT🚨 #HB1707 would exempt the charter school industry from ALL city zoning laws. Charters could build large athletic facilities in busy neighborhoods & residents or city would have zero say to stop or change it. #txlege #txed #txcharters

A momentous win for Texas students! 🎉

The House just concurred with the Senate on the final version of #HB1707 -- which means the bill heads to the governor to be signed into law. ⚖️

Thank you to our passionate advocates for fairness and opportunity! 🌟 #txlege #txed

Gina Hinojosa shares her personal connection with schools in Austin. Shared HB 31 for enrollment based funding- rally for enrollment funding. Shared watch of HB1707 and SB472 that makes it easier for charters. Watch out for these sister bills. #TXPTARally23

MUST WATCH: Randy Shaffer, superintendent of Trinity Basin Preparatory, explains how cities have discriminated against public charter schools in zoning/permitting. How many examples do we need before students and families are treated fairly? #HB1707 #txed #txlege

#HB1707 is being heard on the House floor today! We understand that historically, charters have enjoyed bipartisan support. Now, we believe, we need to refocus on our neighborhood public schools.

What happens when cities subject public charter schools to excessive red tape? It scrambles educators’ plans and throws families into limbo. But as Sarah Landsman of YES Prep Public Schools explains, the answer is simple. #HB1707 #txlege #txed #txcharterswork

Yes, we are still here. Next up is House k-12 subcommittee where two forced outing bills will be heard — HB1707 and HB2432. Again, if you’re watching, please step back when and where you need to take care of you.

Pleased to see the Texas legislature pass HB1707, finally codifying protection for public #charterschools against discriminatory red tape that has too long funneled funds away from students. #txlege #txedTX

Congrats to Stephanie Klick & Senator Bryan Hughes on the passage of #HB1707 , which would require charter schools to be treated the same as a school district for zoning, permitting and fees or other assessments. #txlege #txed

#HB1707 is a very simple bill. It requires cities to follow the same zoning and permitting rules for both public charters and ISDs. No one is asking for any special treatment. #txlege #txed Jeff Leach

Yesterday, DFER TXs top public school choice bill HB1707 passed & is headed to the gov's desk. We appreciate Gina Hinojosa for her work to improve the bill to add common-sense transparency to the public charter sector. When all sides work together, we can support TX kids #txlege
