Republican lawmakers in Nebraska advanced a bill that would ban gender-affirming care for trans youth, with an amendment that would ban abortions at 12 weeks. After the vote, Republicans snuck out through a secret tunnel to avoid being confronted.
Twenty-nine medically specialty organizations have best practice guidelines supporting the use of gender-affirming care in the appropriate population. And so when legislators step in and try to say they can better analyze that data than the specialist in those fields — the people who have trained decades to read and analyze and interpret that literature — is honestly disingenuous.
