AMARILLO, Texas - A new billboard in Texas is letting folks know that everyone is welcome in the Lone Star State, but bigotry is not.
The billboard, erected in Amarillo, appears to be in response to a similar sign that told “liberals” to leave the state.
“Texas is for everyone, not for bigotry. Welcome, y’all,” the new sign in reads.
The original sign, erected along Interstate 40 before it was removed last week, read: “Liberals, Please continue on I-40 until you have left our GREAT STATE OF TEXAS.”
Roman Leal, 26, the owner of Evocation coffee shop in Amarillo, set up a GoFundMe account to help raise money for the new billboard.
