This bill proposes prohibiting municipal libraries in Texas from receiving state funding if they host events where a man presents as a woman or vice versa reads books or stories to minors, with the purpose of entertainment, and the cross-dressing is a primary component. If passed, the law would deny state funding to any library that hosts such an event starting the fiscal year after the event occurs, for events on or after the bill's proposed effective date of September 1, 2023.
