This is possibly the most significant attack on trans rights in this country yet, and I can count the number of posts on my timeline about this on my hands.
If you're trying to dismiss this thinking "It'll die in the senate," DON'T! Sound the alarms now!

Bluesky tonight is neatly divided between trans people and family members appropriately angry and freaking out and everyone else who has barely noticed.

all the articles you read about this will say it "would charge doctors" but there is nothing in the bill limiting the felony crime to medical providers. you could write "would charge parents" and be just as correct. news outlets downplay it because news outlets are transphobic.

Call your representative! I know there was disappointing news today, but this bill has a higher chance of passing the Senate because it's watered down. Let's double our efforts and kill it in the House, then we'll deal with the threat in the Senate.

1. Another anti-trans bill has now been added to the congressional calendar this week.
Following MTG's total felony trans youth care ban, Dan Crenshaw's Medicaid trans youth ban will be heard.
Though it is unlikely to get through the Senate, it will be a major posturing vote for congressmembers.
