eTradeWire News/10804188
AUSTIN, Texas - eTradeWire -- State Representative Ken King (R-Canadian) has spearheaded transformative legislation in the 89th Texas Legislature to safeguard the privacy, safety, and constitutional freedoms of women and children across House District 88 and the state.

As a dedicated advocate for conservative values rooted in the Panhandle, Rep. King has supported the passage of bills that prioritize Texas families and uphold the principles of clarity, accountability, and parental rights.

The Texas House has passed, and Rep. King has championed, the following measures:

● HB 229 (Troxclair): The "What is a Woman?" Bill establishes clear definitions of biological sex for government data collection, ensuring consistent policies in schools, prisons, and public spaces to protect privacy and safety.

● SB 18 (Hughes/Hull): This bill, prioritized in the State Affairs Committee under Chairman King's leadership, prohibits state funding for "Drag Queen Story Hour" events at municipal libraries, shielding children from inappropriate content.

● SB 1257 (Hughes)/HB 778 (Leach): Sent to the Governor, this legislation requires health insurers covering gender-transition procedures to fund detransitioning services, addressing the risks of experimental treatments.

● HB 1106 (Shaheen): This bill empowers parents by removing definitions of "abuse" that penalize those who do not affirm a minor's gender identity preferences, preserving family autonomy.

Rep. King's leadership reflects the values of House District 88, from Gray to Yoakum County, where safety, privacy, and freedom are paramount. As a lifelong Panhandle resident and former school board president, he remains committed to protecting Texas families.
