Hundreds of Chinese Americans protest in Dallas against 'discriminatory' Texas Senate bills [View all]
Chinese Americans from North Texas are protesting against two Texas Senate bills that would ban specific communities from buying property in the state.
Over 250 protesters flocked to John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza in downtown Dallas on Sunday to condemn Senate Bills 147 and 552, which they have denounced as discriminatory.
Bill 147, filed by Republican State Sen. Lois Kolkhorst in November 2022 will effectively prevent people with ties to four countries — China, Russia, North Korea and Iran — from purchasing Texas property or real estate if passed.
Meanwhile, Bill 552 will hinder companies with links to the four countries from buying agricultural land.
