TEXAS: Indicted Attorney General Ken Paxton Demands Target Issue “Plan to Protect Women And Children”

Todd Starnes writes at Fox News:

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton also has grave concerns – and he expressed them in a letter to Target’s chief executive officer.

“It is possible that allowing men in women’s restrooms could lead to criminal and otherwise unwanted activity,” Paxton wrote in the letter obtained exclusively by Fox News.

The attorney general is asking for Target to disclose its plans to protect women and children in their bathrooms and fitting rooms.

“As chief lawyer and law enforcement officer for the State of Texas, I ask that you provide the full text of Target’s safety policies regarding the protection of women and children from those who would use the cover of Target’s restroom policy for nefarious purposes,” Paxton wrote.

The attorney general reiterated that Target is free to open its bathrooms to whoever it wants in the Lone Star State. However, he’s not all that sure Texans will welcome such policies.

“The voters in Houston recently repealed by a wide margin an ordinance that advanced many of the same goals as Target’s current policy,” he wrote.

Last month the Securities & Exchange Commission indicted Paxton on felony fraud charges.
