Since the United States Supreme Court ruled in favor of gay marriage, right-wing
|
||||
groups have shifted their targets towards [[id:52380883-51c6-4736-8dfb-794ce19d54e2][transgender]] people.
|
||||
|
||||
First, a wave of bathroom bills popped up around the country, and were
|
||||
subsequently squashed due to public outcry and protestations by some
|
||||
corporations and sporting teams.
|
||||
|
||||
In 2021 and 2022, terrible record-setting waves of bills targeting trans
|
||||
children have cropped up, and have been passing with frightening regularity.

Louisiana becomes the eighteenth state to pass an [[id:5dec7b32-f3d8-41ed-8d7d-9b78873c1086][anti-transgender sports bill]].
|

The democratic govenor opted not to sign nor veto it, as the
|
||||
republican-controlled house and senate held sufficient majority support to pass
|

it anyway.

#+title: New lawsuit seeks to block Texas trans child abuse investigations | The Texas Tribune
|
||||
|
||||
A [[id:52380883-51c6-4736-8dfb-794ce19d54e2][transgender]] kid attempted suicide because of the political anti-trans crusade
|
||||
in Texas, citing the recent [[id:6be8abbb-a4c6-465d-be5e-4dc3ac6bf03c][Anti-transgender legislation]] and the governor's
|
||||
executive orders to investigate families providing their children with
|
||||
transition care as reasons for his attempt.
|
||||
|
||||
After spending time in a psychiatric facility, the Department of Family and
|
||||
Protective Services showed up at his house. Staff at the facility had discovered
|
||||
during his care that he was on hormone therapy and reported his family for child
|
||||
abuse.
