John, this happened just minutes ago: U.S. Senator Rand Paul went on an anti-trans tirade during Dr. Rachel Levine's confirmation hearing. He brutally attacked trans kids and trans health care, asking her if she supported the "genital mutilation of young children" and using the remainder of his time to spew anti-trans hate and conspiracy theories found in the darkest corners of the internet.
In a perfect world, Rand's views would be condemned to the dustbin of history and acknowledged as the lies they are. But we don't live in a perfect world. His disgusting rant is just one more example of how right-wing extremists are willing to use trans children as a political punching bag. From bills introduced in the U.S. Congress attacking trans students in schools to statewide attempts to criminalize the mere discussion of trans healthcare services to recent legislation banning pride flags, it's clear that bigots are once again willing to demonize LGBTQ lives for their own political gains.
While Dr. Levine took this attack in stride and refused to engage with Rand's nonsense, we won't be letting him or any other bigots off the hook. We've already issued a condemnation - and that's just the start. Will you make a rapid response donation to power our work to defend Dr. Levine and boost out trans leaders everywhere?
