SUMMARY:The Texas Moms Matter Act- HB 11
DESCRIPTION:The Texas Moms Matter Act (HB 11) will be heard before the Public Health Committee of the Texas Legislature this Wednesday beginning at 8:30 a.m. in committee room E2.012 (map linked below). State Representative Shawn Thierry and The Afiya Center will be hosting a press conference e addressing the maternal mortality crisis in Texas\, specifically its impact on African American mothers.  \nWe are asking that Texans take a stand and do something to protect the lives of our mothers! Stand with us with the following actions:\n1) Come by the Capitol Wednesday to vote in support of HB 11 (instructions here: https://www.mytxlegis.legis.state.tx.us/hwrspublic/Video/HouseWitnessReg.mp4 ).  \n2) Stand with us at the press conference at 11 a.m. in support of legislatures taking the issue of maternal mortality\, particularly the devastating disparities impacting Black mothers\, seriously!  \n3) If you can’t make it\, call your State Representative and Senator demanding that they support HB 11 and get it voted out of committee! Find the contact information for your elected official here: http://www.fyi.legis.state.tx.us/Home.aspx \nTexas Moms Matter Act:\nThe Maternal Mortality and Morbidity Task Force is a multi-disciplinary task force created within the Department of State Health Services to review cases of pregnancy-related deaths and trends in severe maternal morbidity. In 2016\, they shared their findings with the Legislature and revealed that African American women are disproportionally at risk of maternal death.\nAdditionally\, African American women accounted for just 11.4% of all births in 2011-2012\, but accounted for 28.8% of all maternal deaths. HB 11 is a comprehensive piece of legislation authored to tackle many aspects of our current maternal mortality crisis in Texas. \nTexas Capitol Map: http://www.bcm.edu/pathimmuno/index.cfm?PMID=14240

SUMMARY:Prison Letter Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Interested in writing letters to incarcerated trans or gender nonconforming persons\, but need some guidance and encouragement? Want to write but not sure what to say? Or afraid that you might not know how to help someone advocate for their safety or healthcare needs? Or maybe you would rather write while in a social setting\, sharing space with friends and community? Then join us for the Prison Letter Writers Workshop! \nTPI’s Prison Services Committee writes letters to incarcerated trans persons\, but we wanted to provide additional opportunity to support our siblings behind the walls. If you want to learn and try writing someone\, maybe just a one-off letter of support and encouragement without committing to write more\, or see what it is like before committing\, this is a time to do that! \nWe’ll talk a little about our work overall with incarcerated persons and some of the individuals we are connected with. And we’ll do our best to answer any questions you may have. \nIf you are interested in writing a letter or just learning about this work\, stop by around 6pm or later (we close about 9pm) and chat with others and consider writing a letter! \nAlso\, we are considering moving this to Saturday. If you would like to participate and a Saturday meeting would be better or worse for you\, let us know whether or not to move the time: nell@tpride.org.

DESCRIPTION:Houston continues to pressure Mayor Turner to pass our Financial Policies Ordinance for family sustaining wages\, benefits\, second chance jobs and affordable housing. \nWe’re releasing a report card for the city of Houston in terms of its economic development.

Do people deserve dignity and respect on the job? \nOur press conference will take place in front of one of Houston’s newest developments: a luxury mall (location TBA) with designer brands and high end apartments. We need Good Jobs instead! \nEvent Partners: Service Employees International Union of Texas (SEIU TX)\, Texas American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (Texas AFL-CIO)\, Texas Organizing Project (TOP)\, Worker’s Defense Project

SUMMARY:Rally to Block Show Me Your Papers Law SB4
DESCRIPTION:On the day of the first hearing in the lawsuit to stop Texas’ show-me-your-papers law\, SB4\, we’re going to gather outside of the courthouse to show that Texans reject hate in their state.

Rechazamos SB4 porque alienta y legaliza el perfil racial de inmigrantes y personas de color. \nMostraremos que estamos unidos contra la opresión\, el racismo y el odio.

SUMMARY:Saturday Drop-In!
DESCRIPTION:In our recent survey\, folks let us know a couple of important things: \n1) They didn’t know how to get involved with TPI’s work\, and \n2) They weren’t involved because their friends weren’t involved. \nSo we are promoting Saturday Drop-In Day! as a way to get with friends or meet friends here to learn about how you can get involved! \nIf you want to meet folks for some food or for hanging out in Bishop Arts\, stop by here first for a bit! Or meet here and get something to eat downstairs at Bolsa or accross the street at Taqueria El Si Hay! Oak Cliff Coffee Roasters is down the street\, as well as many other places meet with your friends and other lovelies. \nIf on public transit\, buses 21\, 444\, and 542 stop right outside. If you want to volunteer and need bus passes\, we can provide day passes for any day you volunteer. \nThe past several months we have been swamped with our support work for incarcerated trans and queer persons\, but that is not all we do\, and if you would like to work in other areas\, we welcome that discussion about how to plug in! For more information about what we do\, see our Member Guide at this page: http://tpride.org/about/membership.php (direct link to just the guide here: http://tpride.org/about/_doc/memberGuide.pdf).
