#anti-trans legislation

[transformationsproject]

These are the anti-trans bills that passed into legislation in the first quarter of 2024 by CATEGORY and STATE.

The most common targets of these bills concern schooling and censorship. Note that some bills can be in multiple categories and that these short descriptions are just introductions. Many bills are highly unique in the ways they remove our civil rights.

You can fight back by organizing and hassling your local representatives.

In case y'all haven't seen this yet, here is a powerful testimony from Loren Perkins, a trans person in Texas:

I don't know the pronouns nor gender for this person, so please use they/them and gender neutral terminology to be respectful 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

hey yall i have like. bad news

theres uh. well i looked at the map a month or so ago and let's just say it's changed since then.

a state being highlighted just means there's at least one law that's been introduced, not that it's passed, but um. this is still quite alarming as it's been an altogether quite organized and successful effort from what i can tell.

please speak up to your local legislators or whoever you're able to reach. find allies to connect with and decide on the most effective form of advocacy for your area. the fact that this is happening at all speaks to the power of organizing and acting in groups. don't forget that this power goes both ways.

In the past hour I've begun making my last resort plan on how to get out of Missouri if need be. I graduated high school last year, I haven't even talked to my folks about this; why am I being forced to seriously consider uprooting myself to avoid punishment for existing? What did I ever do to them

Holy shit. Texas DPS officers just roughed up peaceful protesters in the House Gallery as Republicans prepared to debate their anti-trans bill. (h/t @reportsbychar)

Land of what free? Unless in Texas it means free to be brutal with peaceful prostesters.

If you have a torrent client, download the torrent and set your seed rate to be at least 1.1, and 2.0 if you can. It’s 60 MB so it shouldn’t be that hard on your computer, and this is something that needs to be kept alive.

to all the people who would say I need a professional diagnosis to call myself autistic:

my greatest fear has always been that my autism will be used against me to take away my HRT, and guess what? its happening in my state (ohio).

here’s a link to Erin Reed’s article about it: https://open.substack.com/pub/erininthemorn/p/ohio-trans-ban-progresses-nonexistent?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

basically I feel affirmed in my decision to not get tested more than ever (to be fair i also cant afford it)

Alright, I uploaded this before but took it down because I was embarrassed and felt silly. But some people who saw it said it really helped them, so here we are... Hopefully these words offer more of you comfort and support 🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💜

Sending all my love to my fellow queer/trans siblings. We are strong. We are resilient. We will persevere. We will survive. 🏳️‍🌈🩷🏳️‍⚧️
