So get this. The R's were told "Support SB 6 and you will not get SB 8." Well, how about neither of them? SB 144 is... yes... wait for it... Worse. It removes the perjury statement from absentee ballots.

@Folkyfaery @DadTrans It is also worth noting this comment from the Tavistock & Portmant NHS Foundation Trust about referrals:
tavistockandportman.nhs.uk/about-us/news/… The majority of our users do not take up physical treatment through our service, and any decisions around hormone treatment needs time and considered thought. The long term health and psycho-social wellbeing of young people is always our priority. In all our work we aim to be extremely careful to properly support people and allow them to explore their full range of options.”
