We resolve that free speech shall remain free; that opinions may be spoken, recorded, printed, published, and shared without censorship or reprisal; and that Congress will ensure that individuals’ rights to free speech will not be infringed upon with unconstitutional laws defining “hate speech” and “hate crimes.” Texans should be free to express their religious beliefs, including prayer, in public places. The Republican Party of Texas calls for the reinforcement of protections regarding online speech on all internet-based platforms and strongly urges the federal government to enforce existing free speech protections regarding the designation of platforms that practice censorship of political speech as publishers with the appropriate legal liability such as pursuant to section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996.
