    Case 4:21-cv-00595-O Document 11 Filed 06/02/21 Page 1 of 14 PageID 333 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS FORT WORTH DIVISION Sid Miller, Greg Macha, James Meek, Jeff Peters, and Lorinda O’Shaughnessy, on behalf of themselves and others similarly situated, Plaintiffs, Case No. 4:21-cv-00595-O v. Tom Vilsack, in his official capacity as Secretary of Agriculture, Defendant. PLAINTIFFS’ FIRST AMENDED CLASS-ACTION COMPLAINT The Supreme Court of the United States said 125 years ago that: [T]he constitution of the United States, in its present form, forbids, so far as civil and political rights are concerned, discrimination by the gen- eral government, or by the states, against any citizen because of his race. All citizens are equal before the law. The guaranties of life, liberty, and property are for all persons, within the jurisdiction of the United States, or of any state, without discrimination against any because of their race. Those guaranties, when their violation is properly presented in the reg- ular course of proceedings, must be enforced in the courts, both of the nation and of the state, without reference to considerations based upon race. Gibson v. State of Mississippi, 162 U.S. 565, 591 (1896); see also Bolling v. Sharpe, 347 U.S. 497 (1954) (citing Gibson and holding that segregation in the District of Co- lumbia public schools violated the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment). Equal rights under law is the cornerstone of American constitutional jurispru- dence: the principle that all citizens, regardless of status, wealth, race, color, religion, or creed, have the same rights and are entitled to the same standard of justice.

  • The Honorable Sid Miller Chair, Committee on Homeland Security
    ATTORNEY GENERAL OF TEXAS GREG ABBOTT May 30, 2012 The Honorable Sid Miller Opinion No. GA-0942 Chair, Committee on Homeland Security and Public Safety Re: Authority of a Type A general-law municipality Texas House of Representatives with a population of less than 900,000 to enact an Post Office Box 2910 ordinance setting either a 300-foot "Alcohol-Free Austin, Texas 78768-2910 School Zone" or a 1,000-foot zone around a school in which the sale of alcoholic beverages for off-premises consumption would be prohibited (RQ-I028-GA) Dear Representative Miller: You ask about the authority of a Type A general-law municipality to enact an ordinance setting either a 300-foot "Alcohol-Free School Zone" or a 1,OOO-foot zone around a school in which the sale of alcoholic beverages for off-premises consumption would be prohibited. I We understand that your question concerns a public school located in a general-law municipality with a population of less than 900,000. See Attachment to Request Letter. General-law municipalities are political subdivisions created by the State and, as such, possess only those powers that the State expressly confers upon them. See Tex. Dep 't of Transp. v. City of Sunset Valley, 146 S.W.3d 637,645 (Tex. 2004). Moreover, a municipality does not have the authority to regulate the sale of alcoholic beverages except as permitted by the Alcoholic Beverage Code. See TEX. ALCO. BEV. CODE ANN. § 109.57(a)-(b) (West SUpp. 2011) (stating that the Legislature intends that the Alcoholic Beverage Code "shall exclusively govern the regulation of alcoholic beverages in this state"); see also Dallas Merchant's & Concessionaire's Ass'n v.
