Today’s Action: Tell Congress to reject Marjorie Taylor Greene’s transphobic “Innocence” bill!
Right-wing extremist Marjorie Taylor Greene has taken her vaunted bigotry game to another level with the introduction of new legislation that would force trans kids across the country to de-transition. The absurdly cruel bill — more GOP psychological warfare on at-risk LGBTQ+ youth — would make gender-affirming care for youth a federal crime, rendering life-saving care, such as hormone treatment, puberty blockers, and gender-reassignment surgery, completely off limits until adolescents are well past puberty.
The discriminatory legislation, deceptively titled the "Protect Children's Innocence Act,” would also go so far as to criminalize supportive guardians and medical professionals who provide such care, punishable by 10-25 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. If enacted, federal funds would not be accessible for gender-affirming care, universities and colleges would be forced to wipe transgender care information from lesson plans, and any foreign national who provides such care would be prohibited from entering the country at all.
Call (202-224-3121) or email your members of Congress and tell them to reject Marjorie Taylor Greene's bigoted bill!
An estimated 1.8 million LGBTQ+ young people consider suicide each year, according to the Trevor Project, and over two-thirds of LGBTQ+ youth said their mental health has been negatively impacted by recent debates over transgender rights. Even the mere introduction of this archaic, inhumane legislation puts the lives of countless children at risk — all for political posturing.
Transgender kids don't just deserve gender-affirming care, they absolutely need it to live fulfilling and happy lives. Greene's draconian, heartless bill has no place in American healthcare policy.
Call (202-224-3121) or email your members of Congress and call for the immediate rejection of the "Protect Children's Innocence Act!”
