Texas lawmakers trying to muzzle campus protests have just passed one of the most ridiculous anti-speech laws in the country. Signed by Gov. Greg Abbott, Senate Bill 2972 will ban speech at night — from study groups to newspaper reporting — at public universities in the state.
SB 2972 will require public universities in Texas to adopt policies prohibiting “engaging in expressive activities on campus between the hours of 10 p.m. and 8 a.m.” Expressive activity includes “any speech or expressive conduct” protected by the First Amendment or Texas Constitution.
Here are just a few examples of what such a policy will prohibit on campus between 10 p.m. to 8 a.m.: Meeting with other students to socialize or study, writing an email, working on a research paper, posting on social media, reporting for the student newspaper, wearing a T-shirt with a slogan, dancing, playing music, painting a picture, or praying at a sunrise service.

Good luck with that.
