The ban was part of an ongoing push in the name of parents' rights by members of the House Freedom Caucus, a dozen GOP rebels who left their mark on a broadly popular bill that would prod Child Protective Services to make a variety of improvements.
Among them would be limiting how many "high-needs" kids a CPS worker supervises and making sure all of the agency's front-line employees have top of the line training in child trauma.
The measure by Houston Democratic Rep. Gene Wu won tentative approval, 120-15.
