An open letter sponsored by the LGBTQ advocacy group Human Rights Campaign was signed by Apple, Google, IBM, Johnson & Johnson, Dow and MassMutual. At least...

of a resurgence of efforts to exclude transgender youth and “criminalize or ban best-practice medical care that is proven to save lives.”

Companies are also working internally to check on any employees who could be affected by the directive, said Jessica Shortall, managing director of Texas Competes. The public showing by corporations is reminiscent of the campaign against Texas’ so-called bathroom bills in 2017. At the time, many in the Legislature wanted to prohibit transgender people from using the bathroom of their choice. Hundreds of companies protested the proposals, insisting they would punish vulnerable residents and harm economic prospects for the state.

“The employers that I’ve talked to by and large are telling me that they have never seen this amount or level of outreach and outrage from their workforce, not even during the bathroom fight,” she said. “So, the business case is very real.”“There are a lot of companies who couldn’t meet our deadlines on this ad who are now asking, ‘Can we get on it?’ So finding ways to engage companies and additional efforts like this is top of our list,” he said. “This is an important chapter in a longer book.

Sexually mutilating a young child is child abuse. That's what the transgender movement is trying to protect.

GOD The Creator of man and women made no mistake when He made boys boys and girls girls. That will never change. We are what we are born; with and our chromosomes ☝🏻☝🏼☝🏿☝🏽👑💞

They are not harsh moves against children, they are moves to protect them from abusive parents that care more about the liberal agenda than about their children they want to mutilate.

God favors neither guns nor Greg.

Texas is a state that is now run by the backwards people in the woods in the movie Deliverance.

Don't forget GREED!

First Texas GOP attacks women's right to healthcare, now they're attacking trans kids and their parents. These are their values.

Texas forces women to give birth to unwanted babies, even when raped. What if that child wants gender reassignment and the mother agrees, Paxton will put the mother in jail. The GOP is destroying lives, one way and another.

Abbott’s Failures: ❌Women ❌LGBT ❌POC ❌Healthcare ❌Voting ❌Education ❌Electricity ❌Clean Air ❌Clean Water ❌Guns Only weaklings cheat, build walls, try to control women, oppress POC, deny LGBT, and limit education. TexasDeservesBetter 💪 BetoForGovernor

Texas Republicans have long maintained they alone can create a business-friendly environment. They stoke that while advancing ever more egregious intrusions into civil liberties. Intelligent voters see through that ploy!

When are Texans going to provoke a backlash against GregAbbott ? Vote him out!

He fucked with the wrong people and he’s getting voted out.

Omg he's holding a poster with his own name + god

What a hideous man.

It’s all ideology.

I guess Greg before country

In case you have not noticed, big business itself is under scrutiny as it well should be.

Leftist extremism calls for a response. The progressive assault on family, religion, and women is simply not going to be casually accepted. Did you really think we weren't going to notice?

By what? Writing a harshly worded letter? Until they take action, they haven’t done anything. This is no better than Disney saying “We love the gays” and supporting gay-hating politicians in Florida.

Abbott has NO IDEA the pain & struggle of LGBTQ+ children and their families. Once again instead of helping Texans he is stirring up the most HATEFUL constituents of his base.

Not enough room on that sign for 'GROSS'.
