Bryan Slaton (R-TX) said in a statement. \u201cAs a father or two young children, I would never take my children to a drag show and I know Speaker Dade Phelan and the rest of my Republican colleagues wouldn\u2019t either.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Slaton\u2019s remarks come after a gay bar in Dallas generated national outrage over the weekend for hosting a drag show for children \u201cwhere kids were invited onstage and tipped performers in front of a neon sign bearing an obscene message,\u201d The Daily Wire <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/dallas-gay-bars-drag-show-for-kids-obscene-sign-draws-angry-protests\">reported<\/a>. \u201cOutside the club, protesters gathered to complain that the event was grooming children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Slaton continued by noting that it was not enough for Texas Republicans to protect their own children and that it was their responsibility to put an end to the \u201csexualization that is happening across Texas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI promised my voters that I would stand up for their values and fight to protect Texas kids,\u201d he said. \u201cI was re-elected on that promise and I intend to keep it by authoring legislation to defend kids from being subjected to drag shows and other inappropriate events. I look forward to working with my colleagues to pass this important legislation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Michigan gubernatorial candidate Tudor Dixon, a Republican, also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/michigan-gop-gubernatorial-candidate-tudor-dixon-ill-criminalize-involving-children-in-drag-shows\">responded<\/a> to the event by saying that if she wins the election that she will sign legislation that\u00a0criminalizes involving children in drag shows.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs Governor, I will sign a bill that creates severe criminal penalties for adults who involve children in drag shows,\u201d she said.\u00a0\u201cThis type of behavior is criminal child sexually abusive activity. We will make Michigan the toughest state in the country on child sex abusers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dixon made the remarks in response to a tweet from journalist Andy Ngo, who documents far-left extremism. \u201cThe drag event for children at a gay bar in Dallas, Texas was called \u2018Drag the Kids to Pride\u2019,\u201d Ngo wrote. \u201cIt was held at the Mr. Misster gay bar &#038; club. Children &#038; transvestites danced in front of an electronic sign that read, \u2018It\u2019s not gonna lick itself.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">As Governor, I will sign a bill that creates severe criminal penalties for adults who involve children in drag shows.
