“Save Chick-fil-A” bill passes in Tx House. GOP is learning to fight and Tx is leading the way in its own way. (fast food, wages)

I know what I’ll have for supper.

I'm 100% against this bill.

Cities and municipalities should have the right to do such things as long as they aren't unconstitutional.

And it's up to the SCOTUS to determine Constitutionality in the end.

It's funny but I didn't notice ridiculousness as one of the tactics of Project Blitz's 148-page playbook?

Project Blitz’s latest 148-page playbook, replete with 21 model bills, strategy and messaging guidance, gets distributed to hundreds of state legislators across America. In 2018, 76 Project Blitz bills were introduced in 26 states, with nine bills passing. AU expects even more bills will be introduced throughout the states in upcoming legislative sessions.

Exactly. Meanwhile, the Republican healthcare replacement for Obamacare is still MIA. . . But we have to protect that old time religion at all costs. How ironic that God is all powerful but needs the help of mere humans to preserve his rights

How do you know the political statement of the one councilman represents the basis for the ban by the legislative body of 11 people?

The only thing that's clear in this situation is that the Texas GOP is trying to force San Antonio to accept economic investment it doesn't want on public-owned property.
