I am sorry to report that they got to one. Today, Rep. Stickland amended SB 725, the amendment effectively removed Section 3 of the bill, the portion that included the language from HB 2159. After the amendment the bill was passed to its third reading as amended.
I should point out that Rep. Stickland was one of the original five that helped to kill HB 2159, here is his email address - Jonathan Stickland of Bedford (jonathan.stickland@house.texas.gov)
As it stands now SB 725 no longer supports our efforts to put an end to Lunch Shaming in Texas.

Now there are but two bills that support our efforts, HB 367 and SB 1696. Of the two, HB 367 has bipartisan support and may stand the best chance of surviving the next week intact.
Please contact your state legislators and ask their support and a "YES" vote on HB 367 and SB 1696. Let's make Texas shame free.
