US judge throws out Texas ban on drag acts, calls it unconstitutional

admin, , , ,

A new Texan law limiting public drag performance has been ruled unconstitutional on speech, by a federal judge and permanently forbade enforcement of it.

Not all people will like or condone certain performances.” Hittner ruled that the Texas law was discriminatory and improperly vague. He found that Senate Bill 12 “impermissibly infringes on the First…
