Valedictorian Paxton Smith 

Commencement is a busy time of year, especially this year. Congratulations to all! 

Paxton Smith, the Dallas Lake Highlands High School valedictorian, had the courage to change her preapproved address and discuss a recent abortion bill. Texas Governor Greg Abbott  signed the “heartbeat ban” into law two weeks previous to Ms. Smith’s graduation. It’s very moving to read how frightened and insecure the brave Ms. Smith felt as she decided to change the content of her speech. From talking about TV media and content she switched to the controversial abortion law. “I cannot give up this platform to promote complacency and peace, when there is a war on my body and a war on my rights,”  Attagirl!

Isn’t Governor Abbott responsible for signing legislation allowing Texans to carry handguns in public without a license? Please tackle that law, Paxton Smith.
