A Dallas-area House member has filed three bills to expand religious freedoms to a multi-faith community.
The three bills are simple. One would expand the list of state-optional holidays with paid time off. The current list includes Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and Good Friday. House Bill 1882 would expand that list to include All Saints Day, Diwali, Eid al-Adha, Eid al-Fitr, Passover, Vaisakhi and Vesak, which encompasses the Muslim, Sikh, Hindu and Buddhist faiths, as well as the holy days of Judaism and Christianity.
Rabbi Kelly Levy, an eighth-generation Texan, said her family fled religious persecution in Eastern Europe and arrived in Texas before it was a state. Children of multi-faith backgrounds, like her daughter, should not feel less than their peers in the classroom.
