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 small thread of today's updates. 🧵
Georgia has adjourned it's legislative session and thus has had 5 bills cease to be active! These are SB435, SB266, HB401, HB372, and HB276. Most of these have not moved in some time and may be resurrected next session, but for now we can breathe a sigh of relief!
Alabama HB322 has passed Senate Government Affairs Committee. It only require one more floor vote before being sent to the Governor. This is a bathroom bill that applies to all public schools, and defines "biological sex" by birth certificate.
South Carolina H4608 passed the House and is going to the Senate. This is a standard anti-trans sports bill, mandating that athletics at secondary + postsecondary schools divide athletics by "biological sex", using genitalia, genetics + testosterone.
Oklahoma SB1100 passed House Public Health Committee, and is going to floor. This bill prevents birth certificates from having any sex /gender designation other than male or female. A nonbinary or "X" designation is not allowed.
Tennessee SB2316 had a hearing this morning, and was deferred until 4/13. This bill targets trans-girl students, which bans students whose "biological sex" is male from participating in female, women, or girls sports. Please reach out to the Governor and the Lt. to stop this!
There have been reports of attempts to overturn the future veto of PA HB972, a bill that was already both tabled and brought back. This is a depressingly generic sports bill, aside from lacking any clear definition of how to designate "male" and "female"
It's not too late to help stop hateful anti-trans bills from passing into law. YOU can go to transformationsproject.org to learn more and contact your representatives to #StepUpForTransKids!
