Take away their money. If you want to send Rick "the hair" Perry and the rest of the bigoted and misogynist Texas state government a message than hit them where it matters, businesses that are headquartered in the state. Companies care about who they are seen holding hands with in public. Make sure these companies know how you feel about them doing business in Texas. Tell these companies you have choices where you spend your money. Tell these companies to either put a leash on the Texas state government or you will choose to do business somewhere else.

(21,270 posts)Who wants to move to a state where employees are treated like slaves, lousy unfunded schools, women second class citizens. And people so poor the crime rate increases as perry and his gangsters push the people down. Hell I wouldn't even go there for a vacation or to take a cruise ship now. Texas is a scary state. If North Carolina, Mississippi , south Carolina contine their path like Texas they will lose educated populations to the point the states can no longer afford to pay their legislators. We should start calling them the 3rd world states of America.
