Texas Sen. Joan Huffman provided details about the state’s pro-free speech bill which would apply on college campuses.

The statement subsequently reads as follows:

“Colleges and universities should provide the opportunity for students to hear others’ points of view in a free and unrestrained manner. Senate Bill 18 is a direct result of the Committee’s process of hearings and research toward that goal. This bill was constructed in an objective, non-partisan manner and will be applied equally to all groups and points of view.”
