LGBT Mag Admits Gay Marriage Ruling Unconstitutional

The Texas Sovereignty Act (HB 2338 and SB 2015) may well be the most important bill filed in the Texas Legislature in this 85th Legislative Session.  This bill would rein in the overreach of the federal government by creating a permanent legislative committee that would review federal acts by any branch of the federal government to determine if they are constitutional.  If a federal act is found to be unconstitutional it would become illegal to spend any federal money or resources enforcing it, and it would become a violation of the Texas Official Oppression Act and any other applicable laws for anyone to attempt to enforce that federal act.

The Associated Press recently published an article on the Texas Sovereignty Act which has appeared in many publications such as Fox News and which has been rebutted by both the Tenth Amendment Center  and the New American Magazine.

Outsmart Magazine, a Houston LGBT Magazine, ran the AP article with a very interesting Title "Bill Would Allow Texas To Ignore Same-Sex Marriage Ruling, Other Federal Laws"





Outsmart Magazine (an LGBT magazine) seems to have "out smarted" themselves.  Since the Texas Sovereignty Act would only allow Texas to nullify unconstitutional laws, the headline Outsmart gave to the AP article admits that the Supreme Court's Gay Marriage ruling is unconstitutional!
