Republicans War On Transgenders

Featured Video Play Icon

Republicans have declared War on Transgenders by proposing heartless, inhumane bills and laws which discriminate against them and violate their rights.

More than half of trans youth have seriously considered ending their lives. And according to a study by the American Medical Association, that number decreases by 73% when those kids receive gender affirming care. A 73% decrease in suicidal ideation is an astounding outcome. No drug or antidepressant even comes close to having that kind of impact. Gender-affirming care saves lives.

Republican’s are passing these laws because they’re CRUEL Narrow-Minded, Anti-Science MORONS… Religious Fanatics who are stuck in the Dark Ages, Christian Nationalist who believe there should be no separation between Church and State, and Anti-Democratic Authoritarian Fascists who want BIG GOVERNMENT to control every aspect of people’s lives.

Parents of Transgenders should CLASS ACTION SUE Republican Red States for BILLIONS to make them PAY for passing DISCRIMINATION & CRUELTY laws which violate Transgenders Civil Rights. Parents should also appear on TV shows and call Republicans out by name, who caused hardship to their children.

 

The above video shows how due to Republican’s religious beliefs, they feel justified in discriminating against LGBT people.

It’s important to note that the bible advocates the Death Penalty for working on Sunday and Adultery:

Exodus 31:15 “Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death”.

Leviticus 20:10: “If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife–with the wife of his neighbor–both the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death”.

No mention by the above “Preacher” about those quotes… an example of how Radical Right Wing Republicans are hypocrites who uses the bible to selectively justify their points of view.

 

This video shows a Radical Right Wing Preacher telling parents to “rein in” their kids if they’re daughter acts too “butch” or son acts too feminine, because God made them they way they are. This gets to the heart of why Radical Right Wing Christian Republicans behave as they do towards LGBT kids, parents and everything else. They’re brainwashed with unscientific religious beliefs.

New bill in Oklahoma would ban gender-affirming care for anyone under 26 years old

A new Republican Fascist Authoritarian bill (Oklahoma SB129) was released in Oklahoma that would ban gender affirming care for people under the age of 26 years old. Gen Z would be entirely banned from gender affirming care under this bill. This prospect is terrifying because Gen Z has been the most open about transitioning and a bill like this would medically detransition a huge portion of Oklahoma’s transgender population. This comes after other states like New Hampshire and South Carolina saw bills filed to raise the age of transition to 21, and places like Florida utilized a sham medical board to ban gender affirming care under 18. Slowly, states are moving towards an outright ban on being transgender – it is for these reasons that people have begun calling the attacks on gender affirming care an attempt at genocide.

  • Some bills could make it a felony for doctors to provide life-saving care to trans youth.

Arkansas – On March 29, 2021, Arkansas became the first state in the US to pass a bill prohibiting doctors from treating trans youth. HB1570 is called the “Save Adolescents From Experimentation (SAFE) Act.”  The law will take effect in the summer of 2021.

Kansas will also vote on SB208, a bill that will stop trans students from participating in school sports to “create fairness in women’s sports.”

Kentucky – Kentucky’s HB336 would make providing gender-affirming care for trans minors illegal and protect public officials who express views against gender-affirming care if passed. The state legislature is also debating two bills that would stop trans student-athletes from playing sports: SB106 and HB471.

Interview with State Senator Sarah McBride, the highest ranking trans lawmaker in America

 

New poll shows Americans overwhelmingly oppose anti-transgender laws

Two-thirds of Americans are against laws that would limit transgender rights, a new PBS NewsHour/NPR/Marist poll found. That opposition includes majorities of every political ideology from liberal to conservative and every age group.

Per the above article; “Two-thirds of Americans are against laws that would limit transgender rights, a new PBS NewsHour/NPR/Marist poll found. That opposition includes majorities of every political ideology from liberal to conservative and every age group.

These proposed bills have emerged as a new culture war, with Republican state legislators introducing and voting for them amid Democratic opposition, while a majority of Americans who identify as Republicans are against such laws, according to the poll”.

 

The Shadowy, Widespread Effort to Erase Trans Youth

The overwhelming majority of Americans support transgender rights. But some hate groups are pursuing a craven legal strategy.

Per the above article: Anti-trans legislation is spreading all across the country. State legislatures are trying to spin animus against transgender kids being allowed to participate in sports into rules around who’s allowed to do what in this country. And these very kids are having to show up to try to stop lawmakers from erasing their existence.

Oftentimes what we’ll see two bills in legislatures: One will be a trans youth health care ban and the other will be a sports bill. This dual pursuit is so hard to keep up with because there are so many of them—you’ll see one bill fail, and then another one pops up, or a more extreme version pops up.

A lot of these bills have a single source: a legal advocacy group called the Alliance Defending Freedom.

he Alliance Defending Freedom is a long-standing, extreme anti-LGBTQ group. They’re labeled a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. And to give you a sense of why, for a number of years it’s claimed that LGBTQ people are pedophiles, and it advocated for the forced sterilization of transgender people in the European Court of Human Rights in 2015. It is probably as extreme in its stance on queer people as you can get, and it often is behind a lot of these bills.

 

About Transgender Youth Medical Care Bans:

State Representative Anthony Sabatini has filed HB 211 – the Transgender Youth Medical Care Ban – for the 2022 Florida Legislative Session. These blanket bans attempt to imprison healthcare providers for providing best-practice medical care to transgender youth, criminalize them for practicing their profession, and put politicians between transgender youth, their parents, and medical professionals. Arkansas and Tennessee have passed bans and 18 more states, including Florida, have tried.

This legislation has nothing to do with the health and safety of children — the cruelty is by design. It’s literally cut and paste language from right-wing political strategy groups like the Heritage Foundation that seek to put a target on the backs of transgender youth as an election strategy to mobilize far-right voters. It’s coming from the same anti-LGBTQ playbook they used to create and pass last session’s hateful Transgender Youth Sports Ban.

Earlier this year, Republican Governor of Arkansas, Asa Hutchinson, vetoed a similar bill telling NPR that it amounted to “vast government overreach” and “sends the wrong signal” to a vulnerable population. He urged his legislative colleagues to “rethink [their] engagement in every aspect of culture wars”. The Arkansas Legislature later overrode the veto and became the first state in the nation to ban affirming medical care for transgender youth.

Leading national health organizations like the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Psychological Association, and the American Medical Association support gender-affirming care for transgender children. Doctors and health professionals are tasked with adhering to best practices and standards of care. The legislature forcing them to deviate from that guidance puts the health and wellbeing of transgender youth in peril.

Transgender youth are the most likely to be bullied, the most at risk for suicide, and the most likely to face harassment. We should be working together to keep them safe — not attacking them, their families, and their doctors.

What Does It Mean to Ban Care for Transgender Youth?

Far-right Republicans want you to think that kids are all by themselves, making snap decisions with life-long consequences. But that’s simply not the case.

For most transgender and nonbinary minors, transition care supports “social transitioning” — it’s about presenting as their affirmed gender and using their identified pronouns. When children are able to live and present as their authentic gender identity, they have lower levels of anxiety and depression.
