   Gov. Greg Abbott signed into law a bill prohibiting race-based hair   
   discrimination in Texas workplaces, schools and housing policies.   
      
   House Bill 567, introduced by Democratic Rep. Rhetta Bowers of Rowlett,   
   sailed through both chambers of the Legislature with overwhelming support   
   after the same bill stalled during the legislative session in 2021. The   
   policy, which Abbott signed Saturday, will go into effect Sept. 1.   
      
   Twenty states have passed the CROWN Act — an acronym for Creating a   
   Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair, according to the CROWN   
   Coalition, an organization that champions the legislation. Harris County,   
   the state’s most populous, and the city of Austin have adopted versions of   
   the legislation.   
      
   “I am incredibly thankful to the Governor for signing the CROWN Act into   
   law,” Bowers said in a statement, thanking Sen. Borris L. Miles, a Houston   
   Democrat who sponsored the bill in the Senate, and Adjoa B. Asamoah, who   
   co-founded the CROWN Coalition. “The CROWN Act is a civil rights law that   
   will improve the lives of countless Texans, and it will be appreciated by   
   more people than we can imagine.”   
      
   Asamoah, who conceptualized the law in 2018, said she was “overjoyed.”   
      
   “I’m forever grateful for the servant leadership of Representative Bowers   
   and Senator Miles,” Asamoah said. “They both embody what it means to lead   
   boldly and commit to ushering a bill across the finish line.”   
      
   The movement against natural hair discrimination reached national   
   headlines in 2020 with a series of instances, including two students near   
   Houston who were told to cut their hair or be disciplined.
