Staff Reports
Texas Republican state Rep. Brian Harrison doesn’t have any of President Biden’s meddling ways when taking federal dollars for education. He appreciates the offer, but they can independently handle our affairs in Texas. In an exclusive letter obtained by the Washington Examiner, Harrison made it clear that he wants Texas to give the federal government the ol’ “Don’t mess with Texas” treatment and keep their federal education money.
Harrison is fired up about the Biden administration’s overhaul of Title IX, which now includes gender identities and takes away rights from students accused of sexual misconduct. He’s all like, Biden is attempting to impose his agenda on us forcefully, but we refuse to accept it! This Title IX overhaul is bringing some wild ideas like boys being allowed in girls’ bathrooms, mandatory use of preferred pronouns, and letting men snatch up scholarships meant for the gals. Harrison is all about Texas standing tall and managing their issues without Uncle Sam meddling in our affairs.
From @FoxNews: "I have extraordinary concerns that universities in Texas are doing everything they can to skirt our new law and continue promoting leftist divisive DEI at the taxpayers' expense but just under a new name," Republican Texas State Rep.

Harrison is so worked up about this whole situation that he’s asking the Texas legislature to devise a plan to slowly back away from relying on federal education funds. He wants to ensure that Texas can handle its own education system without following all these excessive federal regulations that suffocate. He’s looking at every single angle of how Texas gets federal funds for education and figuring out how to go it alone without the feds.
Harrison is all about Texas being its own boss and not letting the federal government push it around. He’s calling for Texas to take a stand and stop bowing down to the supreme authority of the federal government. Simply put, he wants Texas to be accessible and do things its way without the feds telling them what to do. Can you blame the guy?
Why the hell do states like TEXAS still take orders from the Department of Education!?
We don’t need their $$.
We should stop taking it, and protect Texans from the tyrannical and dangerous regulations that come with it.
Make the 10th Amendment Great Again!#txlege #TitleIX
