In communities across our state, the freedom to access information is facing an unprecedented challenge. Texans for the Right to Read is a grassroots coalition of concerned residents, organized by the Texas Library Association, standing firmly against the rising movement to ban books based on subjectively deemed content. Our mission is clear: to educate the public and vigorously oppose any legislation, regulations, or executive orders that threaten our First Amendment rights and the intellectual freedom that libraries provide to every Texan. We believe that the power to choose what to read should remain in the hands of individuals and families, not dictated by censorship.

I invite you to take a stand with us by enrolling in the coalition today. Membership is entirely free, and joining is a powerful way to show your support for our local librarians and the diverse stories they protect. By signing up, you’ll stay informed on critical legislative updates and gain the tools needed to advocate for the right to read in your own community. This is more than just a list; it is a unified voice for the values of curiosity, education, and liberty. Join us today and help ensure that Texas libraries remain a sanctuary for all ideas. Enrollment takes only a minute:  https://texansfortherighttoread.com/

As always, thank you for your support.
