The comments quoted in the material do not indicate welcoming Muslims unless they are willing to openly renounce Muslim terrorists and terrorism. His backing of the legislator who did that seems to point in that direction. It does not seem to quite reflect the headline.

"He said he was not impressed with state Rep. Molly Whites recent Facebook post ordering her staff to ask Muslim representatives visiting her office "to renounce Islamic terrorist groups and publicly announce allegiance to America and our laws." Its every legislator's right to say what they want to say, he said of the Belton Republican's Facebook comments. I certainly wouldnt have. I think the message needs to be sent and has historically been sent that we are a very diverse state, he said. We have a lot of different people, different religions, different cultures that call Texas home. We want them to feel comfortable there.

You read his statement like I did the first time but you had better read it again. He said she had the right to say it but he surely wouldn't have. Given his history of working with the Muslims to welcome them into Texas, install education about Muslims in schools (positive image education) and congratulating them on building a mosque.
