Urging all public universities in Texas to respond swiftly and decisively to any attempts to occupy or disrupt campus property.
This resolution urges Texas public universities to adopt policies prohibiting unlawful occupation or disruption of campus property (including buildings and spaces) and to coordinate with law enforcement for swift responses to such incidents. It emphasizes balancing constitutional rights to free speech with maintaining campus safety and order during protests, referencing recent disruptions at universities nationwide related to current events. The resolution has no legal force but expresses the legislature's intent for universities to address disruptions while protecting educational missions.
