A Texas lawmaker has called for an investigation of North Texas school board members who reportedly held an “illicit” meeting strategizing how to delay board action and silence parents regarding transgender policy.

Republican State Rep. Matt Shaheen of Collin County sent a letter to the Texas Education Agency (TEA) on March 13, requesting them to investigate three Frisco Independent School District trustees who were secretly recorded while apparently discussing ways to obstruct conservatives from meddling with the district’s transgender bathroom policy.
