As we start the new #ksleg session, it's time for my 7th annual reminder. If you email the entire legislature, your email gets deleted. You need to contact YOUR Senator and/or YOUR Representative. No, I am not "a f*cking moron* when I remind you I'm not your rep.

Welp, since the block feature is pretty meaningless for providing any kind of safety & this place is being overrun by Nazis, idk how long I’ll last here. I guess I better warm the other app up before #ksleg session starts. Follow me over there @ melissastiehler

Attacking trans rights is not only inhumane- but isn't a winning political strategy. Aspiring legislators-pay attention.
Yet another anti-trans dem goes down. Only a handful of Dems voted in favor of anti trans laws across the United States and they are getting ousted left and right.

Remember that anti-trans and anti-queer activism is not just about trans and queer people. It's about any gender nonconformity whatsoever. It's about blocking anything you can do that won't please a very particular kind of male. Even if it's just a pixie cut.
Republicans now want to arrest women for cutting their hair. This has 12 thousand likes.

The fight for an accessible polling location in Ellis County continues! Last week, the Hays community put up signs to vocalize their support for a Fort Hays State polling location and improved voter access for their neighbors.

Enough is enough. It's time to hold KS elected officials accountable regarding their over-use of 'religious freedom' as an excuse to bully transgender students. #ksleg @aclukansas @loud_light @KS_Interfaith @KansasEquality @TrevorProject @HRC

Imagine working so hard to graduate, and then your graduation speaker is Riley fucking Gaines who apparently is expected to speak about trans people.

WE WON! We defeated the anti-trans bill!!! 🎉 4 Republicans Reps, even after tremendous pressure from GOP leadership, stood up for protecting Kansas kids, their families, and state employees who work with them. Thank you, Rep. Younger, Schreiber, Concannon, & Borjon #ksleg
Trans Kansans: here’s 100s first hand accounts and 100s of studies and the opposition statements from every major medical association about how harmful this anti-trans bill is #ksleg: you all *know* I don’t want to harm anyone but I’m going to vote for this anti-trans bill 🤮

An explanation of the hold up on the vote to override the anti-trans bill in OP To clarify, GOP leadership is threatening legislators who intend on voting their conscience rather than voting party line. Threats like primary opponents or cutting off electoral support #ksleg
For those in doubt, we are Standing At Ease so that some potential swing votes can get woodshedded. The vote will occur this evening. This all depends on the fortitude of some folks. #ksleg

1. Last night, a Kansas Republican, Represetnative Susan Concannon, voted against a transgender ban in the state, upholding the governor's veto. Her message was simple: "Government involvement is not the answer." She was joined by others. Subscribe to support my journalism.

A proposed ban on gender-affirming care for transgender minors in Kansas died when two Republicans switched their votes and prevented the Republican-controlled #ksleg from overriding @GovLauraKelly's veto of the measure. apnews.com/article/gender-af…
