Happy Valentine's day! Unfortunately, many states are not feeling the love and are still forwarding hateful anti-trans legislation. Here are today's updates. 🧵
Utah HB0011 passed its committee hearing and will be moving onto the floor. This is an anti-trans sports bill that would require school athletics to divide sports participation based on gender on birth certificate.
New Hampshire HB1651 was sent to the Children and Family Law Committee and has a hearing TOMORROW 2/15 at 1:15 pm EST. This bill would expand the definition of child abuse to include trans-affirming medical care for minors, including puberty blockers.
Mississippi HB1099 was referred to the Judiciary Committee. This bill would prevent any currently incarcerated person from filing a legal name change unless they are sponsored by a district attorney, sheriff, chaplain or the Commissioner of the Mississippi Dept of Corrections.
Kentucky HB23 was referred to the Education Committee. This is an anti-trans sports bill that divides athletics based on "biological sex" as determined by an unchanged birth certificate or a medical exam.
Delaware has joined our watchlist of states by introducing SB227, which has been sent to the Health and Social Services Committee. This is an anti-trans sports bill that requires all school athletics to be divided by "biological sex" as determined by birth certificate.
It's not too late to stop these and other hateful anti-trans legislation in the United States. Please visit transformationsproject.org to learn about anti-trans legislation in YOUR state and to contact your representatives to #StepUpForTransKids!
