Texas’ Securing Children Online through Parental Empowerment (SCOPE) Act has again been partially blocked after a Texas judge preliminarily enjoined it due to a lawsuit challenging the law.
Austin District Court Judge Robert Pitman has granted a motion for a preliminary injunction against provisions in the SCOPE Act, writing that “even accepting that Texas has a compelling interest in blocking select categories under HB 18, the law is not narrowly tailored.”
