Trans rights, especially those of trans youth, are under attack in the United States. Here's a (thankfully short) thread of today's updates. 🧵
South Dakota HB1005 passed its hearing and will be moving to the House Floor for a general vote. This is a youth bathroom bill that would regulate that school children only utilize bathrooms according to their "biological sex", increasing harassment of trans and GNC youth.
Indiana HB1041 passed the House and has moved onto the Senate. This is an anti-trans sports bill, requiring that students participate in athletics according to "biological sex", with no method described as to how "biological sex" is to be determined, potentially leading to abuse.
These and other bills CAN be stopped! Please go to transformationsproject.org to learn about hateful bills in your state and do your part to #StepUpForTransKids!

Trans rights, especially those of trans youth, are under attack in the United States. Here's today's thread on bill movement updates. 🧵
Arizona SB1165 passed both the minority and majority caucus and will be voted on on the floor. This bill would require that school athletics be divided based on "biological sex", but offers no guidance on how "biological sex" is to be determined, leaving huge potential for abuse.
Arizona HB2608 was read for a second time. This bill would ban all trans-affirming medical care for minors and also removes all public funds for said care. This bill would not only prevent minors from accessing healthcare, but forcibly detransition any trans minors in Arizona.

Trans rights (especially those of trans youth) are under attack in the United States. Here's a thread of today's updates. 🧵
Tennessee SB2153 was filed, adding another bill to our watchlist. This bill would require that school athletics be divided based on "biological sex", which is to be determined by birth certificates.
Arizona HB2161 was put onto the consent calendar for a vote on the House Floor. This bill would expand parental authority to the point that it would force schools to out children to their parents. This is a threat to all queer children.
