House Bill 257 has just passed in Utah. It will go back to the House for a concurrence.

It will ban trans youth from bathrooms, trans adults from changing rooms, and would end legal recognition for trans people in much of law.

A sad day for Utah trans people.

My response to a recent article in the @nypost that criticized our lab's research on neonicotinoid insecticides. The intent of the article was to spread disinformation, fool the public, and influence policymakers. Please don't be fooled, folks.
