He ain\u2019t my President and he can\u2019t tell me what to do. That letter (to be released to all public schools tomorrow) is going straight to the paper shredder. I have 5 daughters myself and I have 2,500 girls in my protection. Their moms and dads expect me to protect them. And that is what I am going to do. Now I don\u2019t want them bullied\u2026 but there are accommodations that can be made short of this. He (President Obama) is destroying the very fiber of this country. He is not a leader. He is a failure.\u201d\u00a0Port Neches-Groves Superintendent Dr. Rodney Cavness<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>You just have to love it when someone says what you\u2019re thinking, don\u2019tcha?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Though\u00a0the letter will not be legally binding, it is a threat signed by officials at the Department of Justice and the Department of Education.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>RESISTING TYRANNY<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Texas has stood up to the transgender policy in several areas, not just the Obama letter.

And the policy admits that it is a federal agency that is attempting to read that phrase into the statute, which it lacks the constitutional authority to do.\u00a0We sincerely hope you will access these deficiencies in the transgender policy and more as the board deliberates its next steps.\u201d Ken Paxton<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Texas Lt.
