SIGN THE PETITION



Dear John,

<p>The assault on girls begins in the kindergarten restroom. It keeps going through middle school. High school. All the way to college locker rooms and dormitories.</p> <p>They are told:&nbsp; <em>Get used to it. It&rsquo;s no big deal. It&rsquo;s fine. This is normal. Girls can have a penis. Boys can have a vagina. This is pure. This is kind. This is sane.</em></p> <p>These are the lies girls and women are expected to embrace.</p> <p><strong>Girls are coerced into submitting their right to privacy. Young teens are forced to forfeit their right to fair competition. Women are verbally bludgeoned to surrender their right to safety.</strong></p> <p>They are told it is fine to remove a sports bra next to a boy in a jock strap in the locker room. They are forced to compete against young men on every court and in every sport.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Not</strong> in every state. <strong>Not</strong> in every school. Only the unfortunate girls who live under the <strong>tyranny of the 24 governors.</strong> Twenty-four terrible governors block protection. <strong>They vetoed laws. They silenced parents. They handed girls over to the demands of gender activists.</strong><br /><br />We see news coming out of these states every week now. Recently during a school board meeting in the <strong>Lucia Mar Unified School District in California</strong>, a 17-year-old girl stood up to speak.</p> <p>She told the board that a biological male student, a male athlete, had walked into the girls&rsquo; locker room while she and her teammates were undressing.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>&ldquo;I went into the women&rsquo;s locker room to change for track practice where I saw, at the end of my row, a biological male watching not only myself but the other young women undress. This experience was beyond traumatizing.&rdquo;</em></p> <p>The room was silent. She was crying. But she kept going.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>&ldquo;Adults like yourself make me and my peers feel like our own comfort was invalid, even though our privacy was and still is completely violated. That is basic biology.&rdquo;</em></p> <p>Then, <strong>as she was still speaking </strong>well within her time limit, the board president cut her off.</p> <p><strong><em>&ldquo;Okay, please wrap it up.&rdquo;</em></strong></p> <p>She quickly read through the rest of her speech and rushed back to her seat..<br /><br />The board didn&rsquo;t ask questions. They didn&rsquo;t acknowledge what she said. They didn&rsquo;t offer to investigate. They didn&rsquo;t thank her for her courage.</p> <p>Applause began quietly, then swelled as the room rose to support her courage. The board president slammed the gavel and snapped, &ldquo;No!&rdquo; ordering the crowd to be silent. <br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;">They obeyed.</span></p> <p>The message to every girl in California was clear:<br /><em><strong>&ldquo;We don&rsquo;t want the truth. We demand your compliance.&rdquo;&nbsp;</strong></em></p>
Sign the petition. Stand with the girls who are being silenced into obedience. Stand against the shameful governors who have handed their dignity over to a lie.
<p>Assemblywoman Kate Sanchez posted the video. She had authored AB-89, a bill to protect girls&rsquo; locker rooms and bathrooms. That bill was killed by Democrats on April 1. Another bill, AB-844, written by Assemblyman Bill Essayli, was also shut down.</p> <p><em>Why?</em> <strong>Because lawmakers claim the issue is not real.</strong></p> <p>This 17-year-old proved otherwise. And still, they cut her off.</p> <p>She did nothing wrong. She didn&rsquo;t violate any policy.<br />She spoke the truth, and that&rsquo;s what they will not allow.</p> <p>Her governor, Gavin Newsom and 23 other governors across the country have taken the same path: protect the lie, silence the truth, and shut down the girls who defend themselves.</p> <p><strong>These governors are guilty of treason against the daughters of their own states. They have violated the trust of the people.They have rejected truth, rejected science, and rejected the most basic responsibility of government:</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>To protect the weak against the strong.</em></li> <li><em>To defend the innocent against the guilty.</em></li> <li><em>To stop the persecution of one group at the hands of its oppressors.</em></li> </ul> <p>These men and women have <strong>blocked bills that would have protected girls. They have vetoed laws, ignored parents, and surrendered to gender extremism.</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Arizona&rsquo;s Katie Hobbs</strong> vetoed a bill that would have kept boys out of girls&rsquo; bathrooms and locker rooms.</li> <li><strong>North Carolina&rsquo;s Josh Stein</strong> mocked protections for girls and called them &ldquo;mean-spirited.&rdquo;</li> <li><strong>Kansas Governor Laura Kelly</strong> rejected a law that would have kept girls' sports female.</li> <li><strong>Utah&rsquo;s Spencer Cox </strong>said lawsuits mattered more than protecting girls in his own state.</li> </ul> <p>They are not the only ones.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Gavin Newsom turned California </strong>into a place where girls must share locker rooms with boys.</li> <li><strong>Jared Polis of Colorado </strong>signed laws that punish anyone, even parents, who refuse to lie about someone&rsquo;s gender.</li> <li><strong>Connecticut's Ned Lamont</strong> stands behind a policy that lets boys dominate female sports and calls it progress.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Twenty-four governors have chosen to protect boys in skirts instead of girls in sports bras.</strong> They have made it clear where they stand, and it&rsquo;s not with your daughter.</p>
We will not be silent. Sign this petition to confront the 24 shameful governors who are betraying our daughters.
<p><strong>Girls across this country are being told to shut up and submit.</strong> If they stand and say <em>&ldquo;No,&rdquo;</em> they are forced to spend fortunes in court to be heard. And even then, they lose. State laws and school mandates are fortified against them.</p> <p>President Trump issued an executive order to protect female sports and spaces. These 24 governors spit in his face. They defy the President. They defy science. They defy the basic truth that boys are not girls, and girls do not exist to make confused boys feel better about themselves. <br /><br /><strong>Every girl in America deserves the same rights and protections.</strong></p> <p>Girls in <strong>California </strong>are just as American as girls in Texas. Girls in <strong>Arizona</strong> are just as deserving of safety as girls in Oklahoma. Geography does not decide your daughter&rsquo;s value.</p> <p>These 24 governors have created state policy where they expose themselves as either cowards or villains. Both supporting the lunacy unleashed on Americas children.&nbsp; They&rsquo;ve decided the <strong>girls under their control do not deserve protection. </strong><br /><br /><strong>No American child should be forced to give up her privacy, her fairness, or her freedom to make a boy feel comfortable in a lie.</strong></p> <p>The new school year is a fresh beginning, but the injustice continues.</p> <p>We are calling these governors out. One by one. Name by name. Vote by vote.</p> <p>They will not hide behind polished statements and legal loopholes. Not anymore.</p> <p>They&rsquo;ve rejected biological reality.</p> <p>They&rsquo;ve surrendered to delusion.</p> <p><strong>And they&rsquo;re forcing girls to tap out to boys in lipstick.</strong></p>
Add your voice and sign our petition to shame the 24 governors who hate our girls.
For the girls,
Anna Derbyshire and the entire CitizenGO Team
<strong>P.S. I’m challenging you:</strong> If your governor is Katie Hobbs, Gavin Newsom, or one of the 24 on this list, give ten dollars to help us fight this battle in every state.
