The story of Texas is a story of migration. In telling this story, a few key
factors emerge.
First, whether you trace your ancestors back to the Lipan Apache, Spanish
explorers or Stephen F. Austin's Old Three Hundred, when you search back far
enough you find that we are all the descendants of people from somewhere

There were a couple of different reports on Wednesday about what the Texans
were seeking in a trade for the top overall pick.
Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reported that the team wanted two first-round picks
and a second-round selection to move down. John McClain of the Houston
Chronicle reported that the Texans wanted to swap 2014 first-rounders while
adding first-round picks in 2014 and 2015 and a second-round pick this year.

合法。但并不是所有美国人都对这一裁决感到满意,比如得州州长。
得克萨斯州州长格雷格·雅培26日就最高法院的裁决发表声明称:“最高法院已经放
弃了它作为一个公正的司法仲裁机构的作用,它已成为一个由九名非选举产生的成员组
成的立法机构。宪法和法院的过去的判决维护了这个国家的人民,而5名大法官则在这
个问题上将自己的个人观点强加于整个国家。”
他称:“尽管最高法院已经下达裁决,但得州人的基本权利——宗教自由仍然受到保
护。没有一个得克萨斯人需要按照这个违背了自身婚姻宗教信仰的最高法院裁决行事。”
他还表示得州宪法保证任何情况下没有人有权在宗教事务上控制或干扰良知。他说美国
宪法第一修正案,得克萨斯州宗教自由恢复法案和新颁布的牧师保护法,都保证宗教自
由。这些法律为得州人坚持对传统婚姻的认识提供了强有力的法律保护。
他表示他将像过去所做的那样,继续捍卫所有得州人的宗教自由——包括婚姻自由是
一个男人和一个女人的结合这一认识。
他还表示今天晚些时候会责令联邦机构优先考虑的得州“宗教自由保护”。
