To: The Texas State House and The Texas State Senate
Repeal the Texas Homosexual Conduct Law
To the Texas House of Representatives and Senate:
We demand that you pass an active repeal of the "homosexual conduct" law still sitting on the law books. This law was declared unconstitutional in 2003, and it is time for it to be erased.
Texas House of Representatives: please vote FOR HB 1701
Senate: please vote FOR SB 538

Why is this important?
Texas is one of 3 remaining states that has yet to actively repeal a law criminalizing the private, consensual, intimate, sexual relations between homosexual people, 10 years after the Supreme Court of the United States invalidated such laws as unconstitutional in 2003. We do not want Texas to place its role in history as the very last state in the nation to repeal this language from the law books. Please stand up and say you want this stigmatizing law to go once and for all!
