Summary Texas has spiraled into a social media war about basic American freedoms.
TEXAS (Net News) - A legal battle over who can use men s and women s public toilets in Houston.
The story begins in May, when the city passed a ruling intended to strengthen the rights of minority groups. One detail was that transgender people were given the right to use male or female public toilets based on their own choice.
The ruling was widely promoted by Houston s mayor, Annise Parker, and dubbed the "Bathroom Bill" by her conservative opponents. A group of Christian pastors gathered 50,000 signatures demanding the law be repealed.
