LINK "Be fruitful and multiply": TX bill cuts property taxes for couples with 10 kids
State Rep. Bryan Slaton's bill would reward "quiverfull" Christian families
A Texas lawmaker has filed a bill that would reduce or eliminate property taxes for families with at least four children, a move clearly designed to benefit “quiverfull” Christian families (like the Duggars) who have the resources to have several kids and own a home.
State Rep. Bryan Slaton introduced HB 2889 earlier this week with a reference to his Christian faith, saying “With this bill, Texas will start saying to couples: ‘Get married, stay married, and be fruitful and multiply.’”

Yeah, I can't see giving tax breaks because people aren't responsible enough to properly use birth control.
@snytiger6 I agree 100%, and I did just that.
These christofascists will do anything to reward a very small segment of the population of Texas who they hope vote their way!!!

II think you would have problems feeding 10 kids so why not.

I think if churches insist that families have as many kids as possible, lik the Catholics and Mormons do, then the churches should help supports them.
