Jeff Younger sees himself as the “tip of the spear” in an effort that led the state to investigate parents of transgender children for child abuse.
And the GOP focus on trans kids only grew.
Younger says his actions are an act of love for his child, who lives 20 minutes away with Younger’s ex-wife but whose “friends in the neighborhood ask about him all the time.”He blames the GOP for not doing enough and says it’s his primary reason for running. “We all have to love one another and we have to take care of one another,” he said. “I believe in taking account of opposing positions.”
A few days later, the national hard-right conservative channel One America News Network featured the event’s defiant student organizers, leaders of the Young Conservatives of Texas, one of whom also had to be evacuated from the classroom during the event protest.Whoever wins the runoff will be pitted in November against Wooten, a local developmental specialist and a Democratic newcomer.
