Today, the legislature passed the Gender Affirming Care Ban. It overrules a parent’s right to seek lifesaving care for their trans child, criminalizes providers who provide that care consistent with the guidance of all major medical orgs, & restricts access to care for adults.
Just goes to show how incompetent our Governor really is. This is the man that we're fighting against...
Just goes to show how incompetent our Governor really is. This is the man that we're fighting against...
1/4 MO's GOP AG Andrew Bailey issued an “emergency rule” that severely restricts access to guideline-directed gender-affirming healthcare for minors as well as adults in the state. If you're an ally - pay attention: this isn't just about minors. losangelesblade.com/2023/04/13/mis…
Because Ron DeSantis does not want you to see what he has just done. tampabay.com/news/florida-p…
The far right that has gripped the Republican Party with transphobia will go after you just for having a trans friend. They are going to sink their party over this. The ideological extremism is not palatable to most Americans.
Great news! New Mexico's governor has signed SB13, a Safe State/Refuge bill for trans people and people seeking abortions and other reproductive healthcare! New Mexico will NOT comply with out of state subpoenas around gender affirming care or abortion!
“You ban books, you ban drag— kids are still in body bags.” Students understand exactly what the right wing’s agenda of manufacturing hysteria while doing nothing about gun violence is costing us. And they’re fed up.
🚨 IT’S OFFICIAL! 🚨 Just filed my paperwork to run for FL Senate District 17! Orlando deserves a champion they know and trust, who fights for real issues that matter to working people and families in Orange Cty AND who defends our freedoms + civil rights! carlosguillermosmith.com
The hostile right-wing takeover of higher ed and attacks on academic freedom in Florida have college students outraged and mobilizing against Ron DeSantis. That's why the GOP is trying to suppress their vote with ABSURD new restrictions meant to disenfranchise young voters. 🧵
This bill doesn’t ban drag— it censors it with vague, subjective terms threatening misdemeanor crimes, $10K fines, + license revocations. LGBTQ-friendly businesses + cities are already fearful of welcoming drag and being targeted by Ron DeSantis. That’s the point of censorship.
🚨 JUST IN: Florida Republicans introduced a late-filed amendment to expand their bill censoring drag shows to include those at city pride parades. They're now using intimidation and threats of misdemeanor charges to scare LGBTQ-friendly cities out of hosting drag altogether.
‘Don’t Say LGBT 2.0’ just passed the FL House expanding the gag order on teachers thru 8th grade. It doubles down on book-banning requiring IMMEDIATE REMOVAL of school books targeted for objection by any random person + gives absolute political control over sex ed to the state.
Do not use one shooting to justify legislation against an entire community. Where is this energy when it’s a straight cisgendered male? You can’t have it both ways. We will not be silenced and you cannot get rid of trans beauty 🤍
THREE DAYS! Only three fucking days left before we as a country help @projectcaerus protest for #LGBTQ youths in Florida on #TransDayOfVengeance 🏳️🌈 Be LOUD 🏳️🌈 Be PROUD 🏳️🌈 AND DON’T BACK DOWN

New bills are spreading that ban "aiding and abetting" youth transition. They target therapists, vocal coaches, and more. Some even target "any person," do not name professions. It is a cruel new twist in anti-trans bills. Subscribe to support my work. erininthemorn.substack.com/p/new-anti-tra…
JUST IN: Ron DeSantis signs massive education privatization bill into law qualifying every Florida MILLIONAIRE + BILLIONAIRE to receive taxpayer-funded private school tuition for their kids while defunding public schools! No rules or regulations. 🚫 Socialism for the rich! 💰📚
Yes actually! It’s tough I’ll be honest, and there will be times where you don’t want to keep going, but it is so so worth it! Having a great support system, as well as, and most importantly, being there for yourself, are so important! If anyone needs someone to talk to, dm us!

BREAKING: A MASSIVE walkout involving High School and College students is scheduled to take place in Florida on April 21st, with the purpose of DEFYING Ron DeSantis and his OUTRAGEOUS assault on Education, the LGBT+ community and efforts to SILENCE education about race. Details…
It has officially begun. Trans adults are being pulled from gender affirming care in Missouri. There will be mass medical detransitioning if this rule takes effect. We have arrived at the point I’ve been terrified of for the last 3 years. Take steps to protect your care now.
“It’s a hell of a thing to wake up to.” @echozaurora just sent me this email from her doctor, who doesn’t have the resources to defend her license from the Missouri AG going after trans people. She’s in her 30s and has been on hormones for over a decade.
I once knew a trans woman who was able to stockpile their estrogen by not taking their their dose before getting the blood test and telling their doctor they had. This led to the doctor upping their dosage, and allowed them to build a good back supply in case of HRT bans.
It’s been ONE WEEK since we launched our state senate campaign! Tonight is our first fundraising deadline! Help us DOUBLE what we raised and give before midnight! No time to lose. Together we WIN in 2024! ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻 #TeamCarlos #PeopleOverPolitics secure.actblue.com/donate/cgs-soc…

No kid should ever fear going to a birthday party. Last night, 4 kids were murdered and another 20 individuals were injured in yet another mass shooting… Kids should be able to celebrate life without fearing for their death.

The far right that has gripped the Republican Party with transphobia will go after you just for having a trans friend. They are going to sink their party over this. The ideological extremism is not palatable to most Americans.
As Floridians face 60% rate increases for property insurance, millions are losing healthcare and our teacher shortage worsens, Republican leaders are regulating drag shows and bathrooms while calling trans people "mutants, demons, and imps". WE. NEED. A. NEW. LEGISLATURE.
Great news! New Mexico's governor has signed SB13, a Safe State/Refuge bill for trans people and people seeking abortions and other reproductive healthcare! New Mexico will NOT comply with out of state subpoenas around gender affirming care or abortion!
Today, we launched our campaign for Florida Senate and the outpouring of support from our community was overwhelming. 😭 THANK YOU to the hundreds of Orlando residents who joined our kickoff! I’m so inspired by this moment…there is HOPE for Florida. ☀️😊
“I’m running for Florida Senate, to continue fighting for an inclusive state we can all be proud of,” @CarlosGSmith told the @orlandosentinel. “And to give Orlando HOPE that we can have a delegation of local leadership that will stand against Tallahassee’s extreme agenda.”
They're still going... no seriously... They're STILL filibustering iNebraska for trans rights! Senators Cavanaugh, Hunt, Fredrickson, and others are continuing to filibuster the Nebraska legislature to stop a trans healthcare ban. It's gone for months. Not a single bill!
Standing in solidarity with the amazing educators in NJ who are going on strike to demand better wages and treatment. Teachers play such an important role in our lives, yet they rarely get the credit and treatment they deserve. Thank you for everything educators 🫶🏼
