While the media chums it up with Greene, reminder that she has a bill going before the House today to make it a *federal crime* to provide or advocate for healthcare for trans youth.

Federal law has a 48-hour rule that basically says if you’re arrested, you must either be charged and brought before a judge within 48-hours (not incl weekends/holidays) or be released.
The family of the Colorado attacker have been held for 2+ weeks without charges filed. Charge them or release!
