HB 1608, a bill that censors conversation about LGBTQ kids in schools and outs transgender students, today passed the Indiana House with little to no debate. This bill will now move to the Senate.
A trans medical care ban hearing has been scheduled for Wednesday, February 22. We need Hoosiers to pack the Statehouse to stop this cruel bill.
HB 1608 would censor discussion about LGBTQ people in schools and force teachers and administrators to act as ‘gender police,’ outing transgender students without their consent. Our schools should protect all students—including LGBTQ students—so they can learn and thrive in a safe environment.
The Indiana General Assembly is not giving up on its Slate of Hate and we need you with us next week to pack the Statehouse in support of LGBTQ Hoosiers.
Indiana is falling behind our neighboring states and the country on legalizing cannabis. It’s time to change that, and to ensure racial justice is centered in those efforts.
