Trans rights are still under attack in the United States. Please go to transformationsproject.org to learn about your state and contact your reps. Here's a brief thread of today's updates. 🧵
Starting with some delightful news, Indiana has vetoed HB1041!! This was a sports bill banning students from sports that don't align with their birth certificate as written at birth! This is a huge win for student athletes!
New Hampshire has tabled their last bill, removing them from the board! Bill 1180 is dead, and would have proclaimed that amended birth certificates do not apply to athletics, prisons, or places of "intimate privacy”.
Kansas SB484 has passed the Senate, and will be going on to the House. This is another sports bill, banning based on "biological sex", without a clear definition of how that shall be determined.
Kentucky SB83 has entered back into the Senate and shall be going to the Governor. This bill is an anti-trans sport bill that would divide athletic participation by "biological sex" which is not defined in any way and there is no explanation for how it should be determined.
Arizona HB2161 has entered the Senate floor. This bill would require that all school records be made available to parents and mandate that schools gain written permission from parents before teaching students about sex, sexuality or gender.
Alabama HB170 passed the Senate Judiciary Committee. This bill would define any surgery performed for someone under the age of 19 to their "female" genitalia as FGM (Female Genital Mutilation), effectively banning bottom surgery for these people.
It's not too late to stop these and other hateful bills. Please go to transformationsproject.org to learn about anti-trans bills in your state and to contact your representatives to #StepUpForTransKids!
