flag Texas AG Paxton sues state housing agency over rules banning religion in funded programs, citing First Amendment violations.

flag Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has sued the Texas Department of Housing and Community Development, claiming its rules banning religious activities in funded housing and homelessness programs violate the First Amendment. flag He argues the restrictions force faith-based groups to suppress religious practices to receive funding, infringing on religious liberty. flag The lawsuit targets multiple programs including emergency housing and homelessness services, though no specific cases of denied funding were cited. flag This follows Paxton’s broader push to challenge state policies he believes discriminate against religious organizations in public funding decisions. flag The TDHCD did not comment.
