GOP Candidate Claims Victory For Having Suicide Hotline Webpage Removed

The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) removed its LGBTQ youth resource page after a Republican challenging Gov. Greg Abbott (R) in next year’s election complained that tax dollars were being used to “promote transgender sexual policies.” UPDATE: After the LGBTQ resource webpage was removed, Huffines boasted about his ‘victory.’

In a statement, Don Huffines said he had followed through on his commitment to get the webpage taken down. “We aren’t surprised that state employees who are loyal to Greg Abbott had to scramble after we called their perverse actions out,” Huffines said in a statement. “I promised Texans I would get rid of that website, and I kept that promise.”
