Why some Texas teachers are being forced to “deadname” trans students under a new state law

November 1705:00 AM
 

The law requires school employees to use names and pronouns that conform to students’ sex at birth.The law requires school employees to use names and pronouns that conform to students’ sex at birth.  Ethan Brignac, a transgender student at Wylie East High School, has been “Ethan” since seventh grade — to his friends, family and teachers. When he reached high school, his dad further validated his chosen name by requesting “Ethan” be used in school records, including in his email, class rosters and ID, which his teachers honored until this fall.  Three weeks after Brignac started his senior year, Wylie East administrators called him to the library and gave him a new ID. On it, in white capital letters, was a name he hadn’t been called in five years. view article  arw

Texas Finally Has an Involuntary Commitment Law!

November 1705:00 AM
 

Breaking news!  A groundbreaking Texas bill authorizes police to take people to psychiatric hospitals against their will.    tate lawmakers pledge to create “new,” expansive commitment laws in Washington that the state already has.  Witnessing the manifestation of its own vision for mass commitments, the New York Times blames it all on Trump.  AI can now predict, more reliably than humans can, the existence of mental illnesses that don’t exist yet.   ProPublica reports on the tragedies caused by anyone questioning psychiatric diagnoses.   The Marshall Project blames too many people being forcibly detained on not enough people being forcibly detained.  No, it’s not April Fools on PsychForce Report. In this third and concluding installment of the September-October 2025 news roundup, I review a selection of prominent news reports that aptly illustrate how and why public discussions of civil commitment end up so far from reality. And I highlight some of the key questions that we should all be asking journalists and legislators to ask. view article  arw

Texans could receive full SNAP benefits in days after government shutdown ends

November 1408:40 AM
 

The U.S. Department of Agriculture on Thursday ordered states to send full SNAP benefits “promptly.”  Texans could receive full November SNAP benefits within days after the U.S. Department of Agriculture on Thursday told states to send enrollees their complete payments for the month.  “State agencies must take immediate steps to ensure households receive their full November allotments promptly,” says the notice from the USDA’s Food and Nutrition Service, which administers the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. “The reduction in maximum allotments for November is no longer in effect.”  The Texas Health and Human Services Commission previously said it would take about three days for food benefits to reach Texans after the USDA issued guidance to states for distributing funds. When the federal agency ordered states last weekend to deliver partial SNAP benefits, the state got them to Texans in two days. view article  arw

Texas A&M system approves policy to restrict faculty from advocating “race and gender ideology

November 1408:33 AM
 

Faculty are also prohibited from teaching material inconsistent with approved syllabi. The changes come in response to a recent controversy over gender identity classroom discussions.  Texas A&M University System regents unanimously voted Thursday to approve a new policy that will require each campus president to sign off on any course that could be seen as advocating for “race and gender ideology or topics related to sexual orientation or gender identity.”  The policy defines race ideology as “attempts to shame a particular race or ethnicity” or anything that “promotes activism on issues related to race or ethnicity rather than academic instruction. Gender ideology is defined as “a concept of self-assessed gender identity replacing, and disconnected from, the biological category of sex.”  view article  arw

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore doubles down on his state’s redistricting response to Texas

November 1408:30 AM
 

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, who is pushing his state to pursue mid-decade redistricting, said Thursday that President Donald Trump should not get to unilaterally decide which states redraw their maps this cycle.  “Donald Trump decided to start picking and choosing which states should go through this process mid-decade,” Moore said during a Texas Tribune Festival panel. “He didn’t call all of us. He called some of us.”  Moore, a Democrat, created a redistricting advisory commission in the wake of a national redistricting arms race that Texas kicked off in August, when state legislators took the rare step of changing the map mid-decade to create more seats for Republicans. view article  arw

State closes book on Harlandale ISD conservatorship, giving back full local control

November 1405:00 AM
 

After five years of being under direct state oversight, the Texas Education Agency decided to end Harlandale Independent School District’s conservatorship on Tuesday.  The announcement comes three months after the state loosened the reins on the conservatorship, “elevating” Harlandale ISD to observing status, a less intrusive form of oversight.   Now, the district has full local control over its own governance.   “This is a tremendous moment for Harlandale ISD,” said Superintendent Gerardo Soto.  “It represents years of collaboration and dedication from our Board of Trustees, staff and community.”  TEA began investigating Harlandale ISD in 2017 after complaints of alleged nepotism, issues with the district’s procurement process, financial mismanagement and dysfunctional governance. Then-superintendent Rey Madrigal “separated” from the district after the board moved to fire him.  view article  arw

Texas State Board of Education advisers signal push to the right in social studies overhaul

November 1405:00 AM
 

The Texas State Board of Education is reshaping how public schools will teach social studies for years to come, but its recent selection of the panelists who will advise members during the process is causing concern among educators, historians and both Democrats and Republicans, who say the panel’s composition is further indication that the state wants to prioritize hard-right conservative viewpoints.  The Republican-dominated education board earlier this year officially launched the process of redesigning Texas’ social studies standards, which outline in detail what students should know by the time of graduation. The group, which will meet again in mid-November, is aiming to finalize the standards by next summer, with classroom implementation expected in 2030. view article  arw

Fresh off defeating state THC ban, Texas hemp industry faces wipeout under federal deal to end shutdown

November 1405:00 AM
 

The issue roiled Texas politics earlier this year when Gov. Greg Abbott vetoed a ban on THC products spearheaded by Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick.  As part of the spending deal to end the government shutdown, federal lawmakers approved a provision cracking down on hemp products containing THC, restoring a ban Texas Republicans sought to impose earlier this year  The funding package, passed by the U.S. House and signed into law by President Donald Trump on Wednesday, includes language banning the sale of hemp-derived products with more than 0.4 milligrams of tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, the psychoactive element in marijuana. The measure would criminalize almost all consumable hemp products nationwide. view article  arw

Alaska’s Public Schools Serve as Emergency Shelters. Those Buildings Are Also in Crisis.

November 1305:22 AM
 

On a Sunday morning last month, James Taq’ac Amik was huddled on a small bridge with his girlfriend. At 4 a.m., they had scrambled into an 18-foot aluminum motor boat, fleeing floodwaters from a massive storm surge that inundated Kipnuk, a village of 700 in the heart of western Alaska’s sprawling Kuskokwim river delta.   “I couldn’t make it up. I tried, but the wind was too strong to try and go by boat, so we ended up staying on the bridge for five hours,” Amik said. Things only grew more dramatic. “The houses started drifting away around 5:30 a.m.,” Amik said. “There was still lights in them, there was people in them.”   When they set out, the couple were heading to Kipnuk’s public school, the largest building in the Alaska Native Yup’ik village. At least that building, they hoped at the time, would be secure. view article  arw
