Trans over all

 


"The Democrats are learning on a daily basis that there is more to politics than January 6 and hating Trump.  They are also learning that some voters think their party has been hijacked by some pretty weird people who think boys can be girls and girls can be boys.

Enter a community in Michigan.  This is the story:" . . .

. . ."Betrayal?  Really?  Maybe the LGBT community never really understood the value system that these immigrants have.  Over the years, I've spoken to many Muslims in the U.S., and they are very conservative on family issues." . . .

Muslims in America be damned: Biden proposes strengthening Title IX protections for transgender students | CNN Politics    The laws targeting trans students focus on several different areas of life. In Oklahoma, for example, Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt last month signed into law a bill that requires students at public schools and public charter schools to use restrooms and locker rooms that match the sex listed on their birth certificates. Earlier this month, Louisiana banned transgender women and girls from competing on sports teams consistent with their gender at all public and some private elementary and secondary schools and colleges. A number of these so-called sports bans have already been challenged in federal court, with judges temporarily pausing West Virginia’s and Idaho’s enforcement of their bans in the last two years.

Several civil rights groups on Thursday praised the proposals from the Biden administration, saying the new rules will help protect LGBTQ youth from discrimination.

“This is a much-needed step in the right direction,” said Paul D. Castillo, an attorney with Lambda Legal, an LGBTQ legal advocacy group, in a statement." . . .
