Anti-Trans Youth Bills Proliferating Among the States

Having Trans friendly people who share the goal of equality in key places in the functions of government is the first and more efficacious step than just making declarations and orders from Biden.  The new Secretary Of Defense who will oversee the reinstatement of Trans military has declared his interest and intention of bringing back Trans people and making them part of the military.  This carries more weight than a nebulous proclamation from the President.  The doings of the SecDef will carry as much or greater weight. 

 

The bill proliferation, since two other states and the House of Representatives also have bills being introduced, is to be expected since the one group that benefited from recent unrest are the H8 groups preparing them and offering the canned bills and campaign funding to vocal conservatives who want revenge on Biden and others who stole their election.

If the community thinks that Biden's victory would end or slow the war against us, they were wrong.  The war has just begun.  Like the virus, it will get worse before it gets better.

 

Oh goodness no, with their champion defeated they have to come at us EXTRA hard to soothe their hurt feelings. The next... probably rest of my life... is going to be interesting. Probably not in a good way. There will be progress, sure but the lawmakers that oppose us as red meat for their base are going to need to be dragged kicking and screaming. At least until Satan calls them home. The median age in congress is what, 102?

 

Hugs!

Unfortunately this is reality for us.  
It’s hard to believe how far they want to take this -

For example, a bill introduced by Mississippi state Sen. Angela Burkes Hill would criminalize access to care for young adults up to age 21”

A little hope here…

 

Four Republican lawmakers in Montana changed their minds at the last minute and killed a bill to ban health care for transgender youth.

Good. I was just reading about that bill yesterday. I'm glad that somebody decided that maybe targeting kids wasn't the best idea.

 

Hugs!

      @Abigail Genevieve, that is not an appropriate question, IMO.  This isn't the Army/McCarthy hearings.   Carolyn Marie

      Don't think Americans would go for the "compulsory" part. We kind of like not being told what to do ... Amazingly, there is great pushback on voter ID laws. The opponents say it discourages voting, especially among the poor and minorities. That is really a smokescreen IMO for those who want to harvest ballots from as many places as possible, including folks who don't exist or don't hold citizenship...

      Pretty soon I think I might be ready to talk about gender-affirming care for kids, possibly w/r/t the Cass Review and its shortcomings.

      She was a beautiful young woman ...   "What we do know is that the offender was a very violent individual and should not have been on our streets.”  Whether gender related or not, the mental health and incarceration issues in our country are incredibly bad and need to be addressed.

      April,   I'm glad my entries are interesting to you.  TransCentralPA is a great organization with so many caring people.  I would strongly recommend you find a way to attend the Keystone Conference.  I guarantee you'll find it an amazing experience.     Hugs,   Sally

      Dear @Sally Stone.  I think you should author a memoir based on these posts (maybe you're already working towards that?).  You could decide at a later time if/when you might want to publish.   I appreciate you sharing your deep connection with your friend Willa (and I am sorry for your loss) and the benefit of having a Trans friend and mentor in our Life and Journey.  I was fortunate to have found one also in our TGP friend @Kasumi63.   As you know we share many common Life themes in our stories.  Drop me a PM if you'd like to chat about it.  Looking forward to the next 'chapter'.

      Voting is compulsory here, for better or worse. Would doing the same in the US snap people out of their apathy?
    • Abigail Genevieve
      I am noting you use CRT terminology.  The comment is not out of the blue.  Some of your remarks on religion suggest atheism.  So it is believable that you are a Marxist, knowingly or not.  Are you?

      Congrats to your family on the new addition!

      Funny you think that I would be able to get through more than two sentences with how bad my stutter gets (joking, of course)   My topic would probably be mythology, random Japan factoids in my mind, or a favorite story   (Best option would be a fave story of mine including a lot of factoids on Japanese myths-)

      Congratulations @ivy. Nothing beats a family growing two feet at a time!

      I read each of your entries and learn so much. Thank you, especially, for the TransCentralPA info. I have been looking fora group and activities where I could express myself safely and with support. I missed this year's conference but next year might be possible and I am going to look at their other events, too.

      Leadership and Management, the differences and similarities between the two as well as the applications of military leadership principles across the spectrum of professions.

      I have read numerous accounts of trans folk no longer being welcome among evangelicals.   I am here for help and fellowship not to rebuke anyone.  I can take a pretty high degree of insult, etc., and you haven't insulted me, to my recollection anyway :) and I usually let it go.  But I thought I would let it all out there.   I am sure I disagree with you on numerous issues.  I appreciate other people's viewpoints, including those who radically disagree with me.  Intellectual challenge is good. One thing I appreciate about @MaeBe.
