    Blatantly unconstitutional. The right to travel is a part of the ‘liberty’ of which the citizen can not be deprived without due process of law under the Fifth Amendment.

      If they cared about the rule of law they’d be devastated. Probably hoping the corrupted supreme court will reinterpret more laws to make women and children needlessly suffer.

      Plus if there is any federal money in those roads, and there assuredly is, then rules can not be set to prohibit individuals or groups.

        I’m pretty sure that the entire interstate highway system was built and is maintained using federal funding, making it very much outside the jurisdiction of the fascists currently in charge of Texas.

        Fascists aren’t known for obeying laws that don’t directly benefit themselves, though…

          Yes, the interstate system is entirely federal funded, but state and county road building also dives into the federal pot. These guys in Texas didn’t do their due diligence.
