BREAKING: We're suing Kansas for a law that invalidates transgender people's updated driver's licenses and authorizes anyone to sue anyone they suspect of being trans for using the "wrong" bathroom.

Who cares where people pee and poop. Just make each toilet its own lockable room if everybody is so worried about it. I’m not hearing about a bunch of Trans people being sexual predators. Those all pretty much come from the Republican Party anymore.

Donating to the ACE foundation is a good place to start for this! this is where the money that will help trans people in Wichita (biggest city in KS) be able to eat, pay for healthcare, and get rides will come from: acefoundationict.org

oh, there's other reasons, but they're not any better the goal, you see, is to force total conformity; we're just being used as the pokey bit on the spear that they hope'll let them police literally fucking everybody, everywhere, for any reason

Good! I knew Stephanie Mott, the trans woman who started the fight for correct drivers license & bathrooms here in Kansas. She passed way in 2019. She was a wonderful woman! She was very religious, far more religious than any Republicans in office.

Only survivors. Also, it wouldn't surprise me if any of these idiots think they've never even seen a trans person irl, but in reality they're just really shit at clocking us, because they deluded themselves into believing "we can always tell"

If I lived in Kansas I would start a movement where everyone just urinates outdoors until this is resolved. They can’t put everyone in jail for public indecency and it would make it clear how crazy their obsession with bathroom use it. Get over it Kansas!

That law is crazy and I hope the large amount of precedent against it will be sufficient. Our court system is pretty screwed at the moment (our entire government and all its agencies are pretty much a joke more than effective working things).

Go get it! Also, I strongly recommend talking to intersex advocates (there are prominent ones in Kansas) to ensure they are not being erased in this critical effort.

Why don’t these types of people stop obsessing about who is using which bathrooms? It’s white men always leaving there urine drippings on the floor that need to be discriminate against.

They're a heady mixture of cowardice, fear of inadequacy, toxic patriarchal attitudes, and proud ignorance. Trans people existing irritates those demons by rejecting that order that was (often literally) beaten into them, and during to exist outside the lies that give them structure. They hate it

That and if you make trans women out themselves, it's easier to commit violence against them. We've all heard how ICE apparently thinks murdering people is playing Call of Duty. That kind of guy would do ugly things ...

People need to get a freaking life. Sue somebody they "suspect" of using the wrong bathroom? What is the basis for harm? I've used the men's bathroom so many times bc the women's was full, and I am a geriatric female. GET A LIFE...it's a bathroom.

Down here is Floridah they actually passed a law to prevent this … not sure if it a felony or a misdemeanor, BTW women on the golf course use the men’s bathroom as well … and men’s use the women’s because it’s generally cleaner …

A big part of it is that by forcing trans women into the men's room, they're outing them and making them more likely to be the victims of violence. The cruelty is the point.

This is ridiculous. Kansas should be sued. It may look like we’re going backwards, but I have to say, I live in central Tx (where most vote red), and yet I’m seeing a lot of establishments switching to gender neutral restrooms. So progress, however we can get it. 🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜

There are many lovely, concerned people in Kansas doing our best to fight the radicals in our state legislature. We elected a Dem Governor just to have them then elect a super majority in the House and Senate. Please don't give up on us!

Fun fact: the first time I opened my checkbook to them was when GHW Bush thought he was clever calling Mike Dukakis a "card carrying member of the ACLU." It was my fuck-you to that evil spook. Ed Meese had referred to it as the "Criminal Lobby" so I figured it was a "fuck you" twofer 1/2

Ditto. I was in college at the time and didn't have tons of extra $ to be throwing around, but fuck you, GHWB. (And I recently received the newest card to replace the latest in the series that has been in my wallet for all these years since!)

BTW! In "he who laughs last" news, I am delighted to see that Dukakis--the brave American who stood tall for his principles? He's still with us, at 92. Whereas the scheming spook-traitor George HW Bush rests in piss. 2/2

I'm sure there are plenty of Kansas law enforcement that will be happy to perform gender checks during traffic stops. They will be especially targeting the young ones. I'm betting they are getting a huge number of applications. MAGA loves peds

That f-ing “legal definition of biological sex“ 77-207 is a farce worse that Indiana’s definition of pi. I also think it can be used to invalidate the bathroom bill bounties, as 7b limits state interest in gender to health and safety concerns. Using a rest room is neither.

Does the ACLU have any thoughts on the rising trend of Operating System level ID Verification reportedly being pushed in California and Colorado? It smacks a bit of having a breathalyzer installed into your car without notice or reason. Especially since many Americans lack ID's. Worth a look.
