Texas lawmaker proposes to partner in State Capitol on first day of legislative session (video)



A Dallas lawmaker got engaged to his partner in the Texas State Capitol in Austin on Tuesday, Jan. 14. 

State Rep. Venton Jones, a Democrat who became one of the first out Black gay men ever elected to the Texas Legislature in November 2022, proposed to his partner, Gregory Scott Jr., on the floor of the Texas House after Jones was sworn in on the first day of the legislative session.  

When the state House went into recess Tuesday, Jones got down on one knee and asked Scott to marry him. 
 


Scott said yes and wiped away tears as Jones gave him an engagement ring, according to a video shared on social media by WFAA-TV reporter Jason Whitely. 



“Today, I took a renewed oath to serve my community with courage, conviction, and love. I made a promise to the person who has stood beside me through every step of this journey,” Jones said in a statement to local news outlets. “In a time when our love and our very existence are challenged, often in the halls of this very building, this moment is a reminder that love conquers all.”  

Jones said he and his fiancé “stand as proof that progress is unstoppable, and no amount of hate can erase the truth of who we are.” 

As Jones alluded to in his statement, Texas has considered dozens of bills that would restrict the rights of LGBTQ people.
