What are they talking about on day one is where one member out of 435 is going to use the bathroom. That is their focus. So this is not a great start for how we start to turn the focus to the American people.

A trans person didn’t deny your health insurance claim, a giant corporation did.

An asylum seeker didn’t raise your rent, a billionaire’s private equity firm did.

Our focus must be taking on the billionaires & corporate greed.

Trans people are 1% of the population.

The Republican Party is successfully bullying the smallest percentage of our nation to push far right taliban esque norms onto our nation’s women and children.

They do so all the while nominating actual rapists and child sex offenders.

This cannot be swept under the rug. We took a deep dive into the social media activity of the shooter who killed a store owner for displaying a Pride flag – including his accounts that were deleted after he was identified. What we found was disturbing.

New laws in Florida have many educators facing fear and confusion. In the first weeks of school, teachers were asked to take down stickers showing support for LGBTQ students and, in at least one case, to remove rainbow colored paper from a classroom door.

Students at Grapevine High School have staged a walkout. A few days ago, the Grapevile-Colleyville School District voted to essentially ban trans teachers from the classroom, ban the word transgender, pull all lgbtq+ books, and ban pronouns (figure that one out).

Librarians across my state (Missouri) are reporting patrons coming in with lists of books they want to ban or want to judge whether they are “appropriate”. What all these lists have in common is authors or subjects that do with POC or LGBTQ+. The agenda is crystal clear.
