breaking: the negotiated NDAA to authority military spending would ban trans women from competing in sports at military academies
it would likely be the first sports ban in federal statute, and would codify a definition of sex as solely defined at birth
unless something changes it is set to be law

1. Missouri prefiled bills are in, and the anti-trans panic continues.
One even goes as far as to ban social transition in schools.
Any teacher who "supports" it, including name changes, pronouns, or "treatment," would be fired.
Even with parent permission!

New Missouri Bill Would Ban "Social Transition" In Schools, Even With Parental Permission
The bill defines social transition as name changes and pronouns, and would disallow any "conduct that facilitates" such social transition.

When the NEA asked us to promise not to publish trans, nonbinary, or gender fluid authors, we told them to kick rocks. (Actually, formally, with a unanimous vote by the Board of Directors, we told them to kick rocks.) So the NEA rescinded our funding.

While Maryland Gov. Moore posted about Trans Day of Rememberance, his state was torturing a trans woman by denying her hormones and housing her with men--according to her lawyer--for 2 months.
All of this for "hate crime" charges from alleged vandalism of a trans symbol near a Catholic school.

This is basically making it so trans people who were adopted and had their birth records sealed cannot obtain a passport at all. This will also ensnare cis people who were adopted and have clerical errors on their records or are suspected of being trans.

In somewhat good news, today the state department website has changed the answer to this question to defer to ICAO policy. Sources still tell me that there is some appetite for invalidation/reversion of passports issued under the injunction, but this message will be welcome to many trans people.

Many people dismissed the announcement Catholic hospitals will ban gender-affirming care nationwide under the assumption that there will be other options. In reality, Catholic hospitals make up as much 46% of options in some states. This map is 2020, prior to Trump’s assault on safety net hospitals.

The intent, for anyone paying attention, is clearly to revoke trans peoples’ passports and then refuse to issue new ones, keeping us captive and on a state extermination list.
