Every time a bill is introduced to exclude transgender Texans from some aspect of daily life the message is loud and clear that it is okay to debate the humanity and dignity of transgender people. This is not normal. #txlege #LetThemPlay #StopTargetingTransKids #ProtectTransKids
Transgender Texans & their parents have begged lawmakers not to put the weight of the #txlege behind excluding & isolating their kids. These bills are needlessly cruel. https://t.co/W1YHywpu98 #LetThemPlay #StopTargetingTransKids
Rowen Ireland (they/them) says not participating in sports means sitting alone in a room watching documentaries while peers are together playing, sharing meals, taking bus rides together. They are lucky to now be at a supportive school in Austin and feel included.
The LGBTQ+ community in Texas needs our help!
Please review @EqualityTexas' recent thread on the many anti-LGBTQ+ state legislation, especially those targeting transgender youth.

2021 is the worst year for LGBTQ+ state legislative attacks across the country. In Texas, 76 anti-LGBTQ+ bills have been filed, with more than 50 of those bills targeting transgender children.
Does the #txlege House really want to prioritize this kind of harm to kids? https://t.co/BsFua8umN0 #txlege #LetThemPlay #StopTargetingTransKids #ProtectTransKids
“Sports saved my life, and I beg of you to allow this to continue for other kids like myself.”
Elected officials should work to protect kids, not hurt them. Tell Texas lawmakers to vote no on SB 29 and its harmful ban on trans kids in sports. #TxLege https://t.co/Rpnf7U8Z99

Each time a bill like SB3 is introduced to exclude transgender Texans from daily life the message is that it is okay to debate the humanity & dignity of transgender people. IT IS NOT. #txlege #LetThemPlay #StopTargetingTransKids #ProtectTransKids

If anti-trans bill #SB29 (#SB3) passes in Texas, it will only further isolate trans and nonbinary students in the state.
Trans and nonbinary kids are just KIDS who deserve the same dignity and safety as other students.

Bills designed to ban trans kids from playing sports that align with their gender aren't about "saving girls' and women's sports," no matter what bill supporters say. #txlege #LetThemPlay #StopTargetingTransKids #ProtectTransKids
