MassResistance Special Reports: How Texas Banned GSAs Statewide

 

MassResistance Special 10-part Report:

Why LGBT “GSA Clubs” must be banned from all public schools.

Part 9: How Texas banned GSAs statewide

Texas GSA ban is part of a bold, comprehensive parents’ rights law enacted in 2025

Radical pro-LGBT groups got a temporary court injunction in three school districts

But other schools across state have closed down their GSAs

July 31, 2026
ALT TEXT Outside the Texas State Capitol in 2021. For years MassResistance pressured Texas legislators to move forward on parents' rights. They kept stalling. It finally came to fruition last year.

Texas is boldly leading the way and doing the right thing.

In Part 8 we described the legal threats used by the LGBT movement to keep GSA clubs (“Gay Straight Alliance” or “Genders and Sexualities Alliance”) from being blocked in schools. In particular, they invoke the federal Equal Access Act (which we debunked in Part 7).

As a result, state legislatures, local governments, and school districts have been afraid to prohibit GSAs.

But the Texas legislature has now passed a law that outright bans GSAs. And the state is aggressively fighting the LGBT movement’s court challenge in three school districts. (Texas has over 1,200 school districts.)

Texas passes a bold bill

On June 20, 2025, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed bill SB 12 into law. It is a comprehensive bill that enacts a bold list of parents’ rights mandates, as well as new reporting requirements, certifications, and directives for all Texas schools.

When it went into effect on September 1, 2025, it gave the Left nightmares.

The major parts of SB 12 include:

  • Ban on all GSAs. The law specifically says: “A school district or open-enrollment charter school may not authorize or sponsor a student club based on sexual orientation or gender identity.”
  • Requires written permission to join any student club. A school district must require the written consent of a parent or guardian before a student may participate in a student club at the district or school. (Note: We are not sure why this extra bureauracy is necessary now. Requiring permission for all clubs was a tactic by some schools to avoid the legal threat of banning GSAs, but just makes it harder to join them.)
  • No LGBT discussion or indoctrination in classes or elsewhere. Prohibits school districts, charter schools, staff, or third parties from providing instruction, guidance, activities, or programming regarding sexual orientation or gender identity across all grades pre-K through 12th. (This is as important as the GSA ban!)
  • No DEI in the schools. Schools are prohibited from having any school-wide diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives or activities. School districts are barred from assigning DEI duties to employees or allowing employees, contractors, or volunteers to engage in DEI duties.
  • No “social transitioning” of students. School employees are prohibited from aiding or encouraging a student's "social transitioning" (such as using a name or pronouns that differ from the student's legal name or biological sex) without express written parental consent.
  • Parental notification of changes to students’ health or “well-being.” Parents must be notified of any changes to mental, emotional, or physical health of their children, and if they are being monitored regarding that. It also prohibits policies that encourage students to keep health information hidden from parents. (Example: Children in an emotional crisis are easily persuaded by school counselors that they are “gay” or “trans.”)
  • Strict opt-in for psychological, medical, and health services. Clarifies that explicit, affirmative written consent (which cannot be bundled with other generic signature forms) is required for psychological/psychiatric exams or treatments, biometric data collection, non-routine healthcare/medications, or human sexuality instruction.
  • Written consent for surveys and screening. Requires written parental consent prior to administering any well-being questionnaire, survey, check-in, or health screening form.
  • Pro-parent school board meeting changes. Local school boards must hold their meetings outside of normal work hours, move the public comments segment to the beginning of the meeting, and have an online comments portal.
  • Parental access to child’s school library records: Expands parental record access rights to include tracking all library materials checked out by their child.
  • Mandatory posting of course syllabi: Requires districts to post an instructional plan or syllabus for every class on the district website at the start of each semester, and mandates that teachers provide copies to administrators and parents before the semester begins.

Complying with GSA ban

To avoid state compliance penalties or loss of funding, school districts across Texas quickly got to work to follow the law.

Regarding the GSA prohibition, school boards and administrators across Texas moved to formally disband, derecognize, or deny facilities to GSAs, Pride clubs, and similar student organizations.

In many communities, former GSA student leaders shifted their meetings off-campus to local community centers, libraries, or online platforms to maintain support networks outside of the school’s jurisdiction. But that means the clubs are now less influential or effective than when they were official groups inside the schools.

In addition, districts across Texas created a new administrative infrastructure, requiring all students to submit signed parental consent forms before joining any extracurricular club (chess club, robotics, debate, etc.).

LGBT legal groups file a lawsuit and get an injunction for 3 school districts

A few days before the law took effect, a coalition of radical groups filed a federal lawsuit, GSA Network v. Mormath, in the U.S. District Court. The plaintiffs included: GSA Network, Transgender Law Center, ACLU of Texas, Texas American Federation of Teachers, and some individual students and teachers.

ALT TEXT Pushing the agenda. ACLU Texas staff at LGBTQ Pride event. Note their signs: "Pride is still protest." [Photo by aclutx.org]

The plaintiffs’ legal standing allows the lawsuit to apply to only three school districts: Houston ISD, Katy ISD, and Plano ISD.

The lawsuit challenges four parts of SB 12:

  1. The GSA Ban (Section 27 / Sec. 33.0815(b))
  2. The Inclusivity/DEI Ban (Section 3)
  3. The Social Transition Ban (Section 7)
  4. The “LGBTQ+” Curriculum Ban (Section 24)

(Interestingly, the lawsuit challenges the GSA ban, but it does not challenge the requirement for written parental permission for a student to join any authorized school club. That’s likely something they don’t think they can win.)

What is the basis for their legal challenge? In GSA Network v. Mormath, they use the same basic hackneyed legal arguments that we’ve seen them use everywhere for these kinds of cases.

  • The Federal Equal Access Act of 1984: They claim that the law prohibits schools from “discriminating based on content of speech.” But as we’ve outlined, that law does not apply in this situation.
  • First Amendment (Free Speech): They claim the state is singling out topics of sexual orientation and gender identity for “targeted suppression.” But in fact, schools and teachers do not have a “free speech” right to present anything imaginable to minor children. (If they want that, they should teach at a college instead.)
  • Fourteenth Amendment (Due Process): They argue that restrictions are so vague that it’s impossible for educators to know what conduct or conversations are prohibited. That is all absurd.

In a normal courtroom (i.e., with an unbiased judge) with aggressive and knowledgeable lawyers defending the case, this would be a very difficult lawsuit to win.

The plaintiffs asked for an immediate injunction for the three districts against implementing the challenged sections of SB 12 (including the GSA club ban) while the lawsuit is litigated.

In an upsetting development, the three named school districts declined to defend against the lawsuit. Instead, they filed brief responses taking "no position," which the court treated as a procedural waiver under party-presentation principles. This is not surprising. Those districts likely have leftist school boards and public attorneys who don’t oppose the LGBT agenda in their schools.

Thus, since the injunction request was unopposed, on February 20, 2026, U.S. District Judge Charles R. Eskridge (a Trump appointee) granted the plaintiffs' motion for a preliminary injunction. The injunction is limited to those three districts; it is not statewide.

Texas Attorney General stepping in to defend the case and appeal the injunction

In April, 2026, the Texas Attorney General filed a formal motion to intervene to represent the State of Texas's sovereign interest in defending Senate Bill 12 in the lawsuit. The motion was approved. The AG’s office is now actively leading the defense of the law on the merits as the case proceeds through discovery toward trial. The litigation could potentially continue for years.

The Texas AG has also filed appeal of the preliminary injunction before the U.S. Court of Appeals. Specifically, The AG petitioned the appeals court for an expedited stay of the preliminary injunction pending appeal, arguing that the State of Texas suffers an irreparable constitutional injury whenever a state statute is enjoined by a federal court, regardless of whether local school districts declined to defend it. At this point, the appeals court has not issued a ruling or granted a stay on the preliminary injunction.

All other Texas school districts are required to follow the entire law

Texas is now the only state where GSAs are legally banned from all public schools and charter schools. And to our knowledge, the state intends to be aggressive about enforcing that – with financial and other penalties for districts in violation.

Final thoughts

Texas has proven that bold, sane action is possible. Now the rest of the country should follow. Truly, it’s not too difficult; the LGBT movement’s legal threats are paper tigers.

Until only very recently in our country’s history, the idea of a club for children in public schools that promotes and normalizes homosexuality (or transgenderism, BDSM, etc.) would have been considered unspeakable. The fact that now a state law must be passed to get them out of schools is a terrible reflection of today’s society.

We hope our GSA report series helps laws like Texas’s SB 12 to get passed in more states. It’s time for good people to stand strong!

MassResistance Takes on GSA's Part 8: Outside Groups Professional Organizations Pushing GSAs

 

MassResistance Special 10-part Report:

Why LGBT “GSA Clubs” must be banned from all public schools.

Part 8: How outside legal groups and “legitimate” professional organizations promote and defend GSAs in schools

They also intimidate parents and conservative school committee officials who disagree

July 27, 2026
ALT TEXT School officials and parents get propaganda from all sides on how they "must" allow destructive GSAs in their schools. But in fact they don't have to — and shouldn't.

National LGBT organizations are not the only ones behind GSA clubs (“Gay Straight Alliance” or “Genders and Sexualities Alliance”) found in thousands of schools across America. National professional organizations and legal groups also prop up that corrupt project.

In Part 2 of our GSA report, we described how these clubs get into K-12 schools. We noted that GSAs are not like other school clubs such as a chess club, a science club, etc. Their goals include normalizing homosexuality, transgenderism, and similar perverted behaviors in the school and the surrounding community.

GSAs are not organic; kids would not naturally think of starting one. They are professionally organized by activist adults and brought into the schools through sophisticated organizing and propaganda techniques.

To counter any pushback from school officials or community members, these national LGBT groups have developed forceful (though completely dishonest) talking points to intimidate and silence opponents to GSAs. And should objections to a GSA in a school system continue, the LGBT movement has more ammunition.

“Legitimate” professional organizations

Numerous professional associations (representing teachers and schools administrators, mental health professionals, physicians, counselor associations, etc.) also support the LGBT movement’s effort to push and keep GSAs in schools. The major organizations include:

American Psychological Association (APA)
Centers for Disease Control (CDC)
National Education Association (NEA)
American Academy of Pediatrics
National Association of School Psychologists
American Association of School Administrators
American Counseling Association
American Federation of Teachers
American School Counselor Association
American School Health Association
National Association of Secondary School Principals
National Association of Social Workers
School Social Work Association of America

Unfortunately, too many school administrators – even many “conservative” ones – blindly follow the misguided advice these associations put out.

The American Psychological Association (APA) published a resource, Just the Facts About Sexual Orientation & Youth, meant to convince school principals and administrators across the country to support LGBT “diversity” policies in schools.

ALT TEXT A shocking pantheon of formerly trustworthy professional organizations have sold out to the LGBT movement.

In addition to the booklet’s overall strong advocacy of the normalization and support of homosexual, bisexual, and transgender “identities,” it includes statements from several of the organizations from their specific professional perspectives.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has posted this troubling statement endorsing GSAs in schools:

Several practices can improve the health, safety, and school connectedness for LGBTQ+ youth by addressing stigma and bias. Among them are conducting professional development with school staff, allowing LGBTQ+ students equal access to student-led clubs, and creating inclusive school and district policies. … Students in schools nationwide have created and led clubs where students with LGBTQ+ identities and their allies can socialize, provide support, and work together to create safe and supportive school environments. …

The APA also collaborated with the Los Angeles Children’s Hospital to recommend “establishing and sustaining GSAs” in the Los Angeles Schools.  The CDC helped fund that “Safe and Supportive Environments” initiative through its DASH funds (Division of Adolescent and School Health). The premise was “HIV prevention.”

The American Academy of Pediatrics (a noteworthy member of the above-mentioned “Just the Facts” coalition) also published a separate policy statement. Titled “Ensuring Comprehensive Care and Support for Transgender and Gender-Diverse Children and Adolescents,” it discusses “safe schools,” cites data from GLSEN, and notes the value of GSAs.

The National Education Association (NEA) collaborated with the ACLU, Gender Spectrum, Human Rights Campaign, and National Center for Lesbian Rights to publish “Schools in Transition: A Guide for Supporting Transgender Students in K-12 Schools.” It pushes the “safe spaces” that GSAs impose on schools:

Creating school environments that respect and affirm gender diversity will empower all students rather than limit them. GLSEN’s study on the impact of Gay-Straight Alliances, for example, suggests that such organizations create school environments where all students are less likely to hear homophobic slurs.

The “Schools in Transition” report also suggests how to handle “unsupportive parents.”

ALT TEXT The NEA has teamed up with the worst possible groups on these issues.

Legal groups

There are also well-funded legal groups providing guidance and legal support to the adults and students engaged in GSAs. They employ (largely unsupportable) legal arguments to prevent or quash challenges to the GSAs. These invariably include a heavy reliance on threats to invoke the Equal Access Act. (Unfortunately, local school attorneys are often intimidated by these threats. In Part 7 we exposed the Equal Access Act as basically toothless.)

These radical legal groups include:

Lambda Legal
GLAD Law
ACLU
National Center for LGBTQ Rights (formerly National Center for Lesbian Rights)
Harvard Law School LGBTQI Advocacy Clinic
Transgender Law Center
Southern Poverty Law Center
U.S. Department of Education (Office for Civil Rights)

ALT TEXT Lambda Legal, like the ACLU, focuses its resources on suing conservative schools over GSAs. But their legal grounding is thinner than people realize.

GLAD Law (GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders), based in Massachusetts, brags about the legal help it has given, forcing schools to allow GSAs. GLAD cites the Equal Access Act as the basis:

ALT TEXT This was passed out at "Youth Pride" events.

The ACLU uses the Equal Access Act to bully schools across the country to allow GSAs. It claims victories in protecting GSAs, largely through reference to that 1984 law. It has posted a template letter for use to instill fear of a lawsuit in a school administrator who opposes a GSA. It summarizes their defense for GSAs:

First page of ACLU’s 4-page threat letter to school superintendents:
“Allow the GSA or we’ll see you in court.”

ACLU and GLISTEN (formerly GLSEN) jointly authored this pamphlet (below): “Know Your Rights: A Guide for Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Students.” It summarizes their arguments on students’ free speech at school and what counts as “disruption” of educational time. It encourages students to file complaints if their “rights” to form a GSA are violated.

ALT TEXT This ACLU pamphlet cites a laundry list of federal laws and even the US Constitution to threaten schools into normalizing students' sexual perversions. But it's basically all scare tactics.

GLISTEN/GLSEN also supplies these additional resources for arguing for the legality of GSAs.

The U.S. Department of Education still posts this Biden-era 2023 document that advocated for GSA legality, citing court cases of losing efforts to shut down GSAs while ignoring much of the actual wording of the Equal Access Act.

ALT TEXT The US Department of Education still has this on its website - likely because its bureaucrats still believe in it.

Final thoughts

It’s shocking how many major “trustworthy” institutions have cowered before the poisonous LGBT radical agenda and are pushing it on vulnerable schoolchildren.

To an unsophisticated school administrator, school board member, or school attorney who objects to having a GSA at school, it seems the facts and the law are overwhelmingly stacked against him.

But if you drill down and do the research, you will find that the claim that GSAs are legally untouchable is a well-crafted illusion. The “facts” are either distortions or completely phony, and the legal arguments are easily dismantled. It just takes some courage, principles, and perseverance.

MassResistance Exposes the Los Angeles "Pride" Parades

 

LA Pride Parade reveals rot in government, unions, politicians, and corporations

Showing how they are enemies of a normal, healthy society

Government should enforce obscenity laws and refuse special exemptions for the LGBT agenda

How MassResistance is fighting to turn this around

July 1, 2026
ALT TEXT At left, "Mr. LA Pride" waves to onlookers. The Los Angeles Electricians Union supports this and participates. [All photos by MassResistance.]

“Gay pride” month is finally over.

It’s disturbing and a bit frightening that so many “legitimate” entities still publicly participate in “gay pride” parades. MassResistance went to Los Angeles to see this firsthand. Numerous government agencies, politicians, unions, and American corporations took part in the event.

“Gay pride” month – and particularly its gross and offensive parades in cities across the country – is clearly losing acceptance (if it ever really had it) among average Americans. This year, numerous gay pride events have been cancelled for lack of financial support, though they still manage to thrive in big cities where there is more support available.

The Los Angeles Gay Pride event on June 14 was like those in Boston, New York, Chicago, and other big cities. It included a parade through the city and a “festival” with booths.

Here’s some of what we saw that day:

Public displays of people’s perversion and dysfunction

“Gay” has always been a front for a range of weird sexual behaviors and dysfunction. The propaganda machine in the media and elsewhere hides this very well. But at “gay pride” parades, the true nature of “LGBT” comes out from the shadows.

ALT TEXT What would a "gay pride" parade be without a contingent of BDSM (bondage, dominance, sadism, and masochism) marchers along with their BDSM flag?
ALT TEXT There were lots of "transgender" marchers, even men with beards dressed as women.
ALT TEXT This contingent included a giant penis. These seem to show up a lot at "gay pride" parades.
ALT TEXT An advertisement for naked gay massage on one of the floats.
ALT TEXT Promoting the "rights" of children to be given puberty blockers.
ALT TEXT This float advertised "LA's Best Transgender Events."
ALT TEXT Virtually every "gay pride" event has several booths like this to help attendees avoid sexually transmitted diseases.

Here’s who supported this

In a healthy society, one would expect these groups and individuals to be promoting wholesome community values and opposing unhealthy, destructive, and morally loathsome behaviors.

ALT TEXT The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power had a float with this banner. Who would have thought even they would be in this?
ALT TEXT The Police Department painted its cars for "gay pride."
ALT TEXT The Los Angeles Fire Department supported the parade.
ALT TEXT The Teamsters Union float.
ALT TEXT The Los Angeles Teachers Union float. Note the "trans rights - labor rights" and "protect LGBT workers" messages. These messages are obviously being taught in the Los Angeles public schools..
ALT TEXT The SEIU (Service Employees International Union) float.
ALT TEXT The L.A. Public Defenders have a "gay pride" parade float. This obvious bias should disqualify them in any normal setting. Imagine if an outspoken conservative needed a public defender in Los Angeles!
ALT TEXT Children's Hospital of Los Angeles.
ALT TEXT Though they're closing hundreds of their stores, Starbucks seems to always have extra money to support "gay pride."
ALT TEXT The Delta Air Lines booth.
ALT TEXT The CocaCola booth was more extravagant than most.
ALT TEXT The local ABC-TV affiliate doesn't bother to hide its bias.

ALT TEXT David Vela is running for re-election to the L.A. County School Board (known as the"Board of Trustees").
ALT TEXT Two candidates for the State Assembly - different districts - advertising in the L.A. "gay pride" parade.

Final thoughts: How MassResistance is fighting back

The massive private foundation funding for the radical LGBT agenda gives it a huge advantage. Support by big corporations helps push it into the workplace and the public sphere. The mainstream media and entertainment industry collude, forcing it into everyone’s faces.

But the truth is that without the force of government, the LGBT presence would be a fraction of what it is. Vicious and oppressive non-discrimination laws covering homosexual and transgender behavior have forced acceptance into everybody’s lives. Following that have come laws mandating teaching LGBT “rights” and sexuality in the schools, inclusion in teachers’ certification, and state regulations for adoption and children’s services departments.

MassResistance has been working with state legislators and city councils across the country to repeal these venomous non-discrimination laws. And we are making progress. (We’ve already reported on our success getting gay flags effectively banned from government buildings, which is related to this.)

We’ve also been helping individuals do great things to fight back in their communities. One person can complain to the police about participating in “gay pride.” One person can make the local library stop its “pride” displays. One person can derail a “pride proclamation” in his town.

Action taken by individuals can make a big difference. And the trickle-down effect will mean fewer governments supporting any part of the LGBT agenda. Let’s all help make this happen!

Kansas MassResistance Stops Cancel Culture Against Nurse

 

MassResistance stops “cancel culture” against Kansas nurse who stood up to trans ideology

Angry, deranged transgender activists demanded she lose her license. Nursing Board was ready to comply.

MassResistance got involved. Nurse was completely exonerated!

February 17, 2025
ALT TEXT This Kansas nurse isn't bowing down to the politically correct mob.

When leftists – particularly LGBT activists – see a lone conservative boldly standing up to their ideology, they do everything they can to destroy the person, the person’s family life, and even the person’s ability to earn a living.

Unfortunately, most pro-family groups do little or nothing to fight this. They usually just sit on the sidelines. But MassResistance jumps right in and battles right back! If you’ve been following us, you’ve seen us in action recently stopping “cancel culture” in New JerseyWisconsinCanada, and Idaho. It makes a difference!

A nurse speaks out on social media

Elaine works as a nurse in the suburbs of Topeka, Kansas. She works for a company that sends her to various places in the area where a nurse is needed.

When Elaine was younger, she was a victim of sexual assault. She is very much against men being allowed in women’s restrooms and locker rooms. She sees the entire transgender movement as medically and psychologically dysfunctional and delusional. It’s especially dangerous for children. In other words, she tells the politically incorrect truth.

She does not discuss her opinions during work. But over the past year, she has been very vocal on social media.

ALT TEXT One of Elaine's posts on X.

Not surprisingly, her posts have attracted abuse from leftist online trolls, especially transgender activists. But that hasn’t bothered her. She feels strongly about telling the truth in the face of destructive political correctness.

Then on October 9, 2024, she received a frightening letter from the Kansas State Board of Nursing. It said:

The Kansas State Board of Nursing (KSBN) has received information that you may have violated the Kansas Nurse Practice Act… It is alleged that you have been using social media to attack the transgender population, and to debase healthcare processes.

The letter went on to say that an investigation has begun on this case.

It was shocking! Elaine was basically telling the truth. Her first reaction was that it was a witch hunt.

A close look at the Kansas Nurse Practice Act, referenced in the letter, reveals that it does not prohibit or even address a nurse’s private social media use. Nor does it mention transgenderism as a prohibited or protected issue.

Moreover, the Kansas State Board of Nursing is appointed by the Democrat governor of Kansas, Laura Kelly. Gov. Kelly recently vetoed a bill that would ban transgender mutilation of children. It’s widely believed that this board is solidly in line with the governor’s pro-LGBT thinking. Transgender activists had obviously communicated to the board about Elaine.

Attacks against Elaine increase

After the board’s letter about the opening of the investigation, LGBT activists and their allies filed numerous complaints against Elaine to the Kansas State Board of Nursing. They wanted her nursing license to be revoked, and make sure she would not be able to work as a nurse again.

In addition, the level of the online attacks against Elaine expanded to vicious doxing and threats. Unhinged transgender activists posted her home address. They exposed where her children went to school. They even began publishing libelous attacks against her husband. They made harassing phone calls to Elaine’s home, too.

ALT TEXT A phone call to Elaine's home

Kansas MassResistance team fights back

In mid-November, our Kansas MassResistance team connected with Elaine. She was thrilled to have our help!

Our activists went to work defending Elaine online – and stomping the leftist trolls attacking her and her family. The leftists certainly weren’t used to the treatment we gave them – and began backing off. They tried attacking us, but of course, that didn’t work.

Our Kansas activists also filed numerous statements in support of Elaine with the nursing board. They also contacted members of the board to express their displeasure about this illegitimate action being taken against her.

Kansas Attorney General weighs in

The flood of online attacks against Elaine – and the absurd charge by the Kansas State Board of Nursing – brought the issue to prominence in Kansas. Kansas Attorney General Kris Korbach, a Republican, was asked to weigh in. Here’s what he said on social media:

ALT TEXT

Actually, this would not be prosecuted by the Attorney General. The nursing board would be the making the decision. But his statement was certainly significant!

Elaine wins!

On December 9, the Kansas State Board of Nursing concluded its investigation and met to make a decision. Several Kansas MassResistance activists attended the meeting to show support for Elaine. The board members immediately left the meeting room and discussed it in private – but they got the message.

A few days later, Elaine received a letter with their one-sentence decision:

The Kansas State Board of Nursing (KSBN) decision was to inactivate (close) the case.

Elaine had won!

During their “investigation,” the nursing board investigator admitted to Elaine that all the complaints against her were about her social media posts. None of the complaints were about actual work as a nurse.

Thus, the charge against her was completely baseless and frivolous – since private social media posts are not prohibited or even addressed in the Kansas Nurse Practice Act. As Elaine had said, it was simply a witch-hunt by the leftists.

Moving forward to stop future abuses

After the decision, we filed a FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) request to see the actual complaints filed against Elaine. The nursing board clearly did not want to release them. They charged as much money as legally possible and (possibly illegally) blacked out the names and addresses of the filers. But it appears that most of the complaints came from across the country. And the British-style spelling of certain words suggests that they even came from foreign countries!

Several Kansas MassResistance activists have contacted state legislators about providing a legal remedy so this kind of abuse won’t happen in the future. It includes limiting the ability of Kansas licensure boards to investigate professionals simply because of their political opinions or speech outside of work hours. This type of cancel culture must be stopped!

Final thoughts

With the momentum from the Trump administrations bold executive actions to protect citizens, the conservative movement needs to start being aggressive about completely stopping the Left’s “cancel culture” against us.

MassResistance is certainly not going to let up!
