A 🌈 for our young sisters & brothers.

ACLU (@ACLU) Tweeted:
Trans kids know who they are. LISTEN TO THEM. https://t.co/1ZzEEAfNCj




Human Rights Campaign (@HRC) Tweeted:
BREAKING: #HB1057 in South Dakota, which would have done incomprehensible harm to trans kids, was moved to the 41st day of the session --- essentially killing the bill.  

Congratulations to all of the advocates who worked around the clock to defeat this dangerous bill. #SDLeg



Dylan says Trans Rights (@DylanMercury) Tweeted:
FWIW, South Dakota is often used as a test site for extremist anti-LGBTQ and anti-woman legislation b/c of the state's lack of progressive infrastructure. It is HUGE that the ACLU of SD was able to mobilize this many people to kill #HB1057 AND IT IS HUGE that they succeeded.


Well done to those who busted tush on this hate mongering

Go kids! You have every right to be heard. I lived through the 1960s and early 70s. It CAN be done.

Yours are the new voices of change in the world.
