Title: The “Merry Christmas Texas” Project
Topic: Merry Christmas
Discussed by Jonathan Saenz
with Texas Values (TxValues.org)
It is sad that the war on Christmas has necessitated a “Merry
Christmas Texas Project” but that’s where we are today. Jonathan Saenz, the President of
Texas Values, has more details about State Representative Dwayne Bohac’s
HB308, a one-page law passed in 2013.
Christmas has been recognized as a federal holiday by the United States since the 1870s. Landmark U.S. Supreme Court cases have made it clear that such expressions and displays are permissible. Since the passage of the Merry Christmas Law, Texas Values has helped defeat efforts across the state to attack Christmas.
“We hope the Merry Christmas Texas Project means less Texas school districts are naughty, and more are nice,” said Jonathan Saenz, president of Texas Values.

Title: Let's All Say "Merry Christmas!"
Topic: Merry Christmas
Discussed by State Rep. Dwayne Bohac
with State Rep. Dwayne Bohac (www.Bohac.com)
The attacks from the left on
Christmas are more than just a “Bah Humbug”. They are determined to drive any
shred or sign of faith out of the public square. Isn’t it time Christians stood
up and said “Not on my watch!”
Back in 2013, Dwayne Bohac authored and passed a bill which allows students,
teachers, and administrators the right to say “Merry Christmas” and sing
religious songs during Christmastime. Dwayne Bohac explains what prompted him to
author this bill.
The Merry Christmas Law protects expressions of Christmas in our state’s public
schools and stops anti-First Amendment forces from banning or suppressing them.
Sadly, the ACLU has not given up. They are still attacking public schools and
the nation’s public life as a whole. Teachers are fearful of losing their jobs
or their principal will retaliate against them. The district leaders are
hesitant to allow “Christmas Talk” because they don’t want to be sued by the
ACLU. Guess what teachers and administrators: Texas has you covered!
Dwayne still needs your help. Please log on to
www.MerryChristmasTexas.com to
sign the petition to protect Christmas! It’s easy and takes
less than 30
seconds. Share the link on Facebook and Twitter; send an email to your contact
list. There is even a page to print the Merry Christmas Law Summary to share
with the principal of your kids’ school. Report the school’s response, whether
it is positive or negative, but especially if they take offense to the law. We
need to know so we can educate them on the law!
