Even though Dems are generally being pretty meh lately, I sent an email to both of my senators today thanking them for voting to block SB 9, the anti-trans sports ban, last week.
Hoping some positive reinforcement keeps them from following Gavin Newsom down the anti-trans rabbit hole.

I sent an email to Darrin LaHood about how Congress shouldn't let Musk ride roughshod over them, and specifically asked for a response, and . . . crickets.
There is loud and there is loud. Yelling at CSPAN is an empty room is one thing. But loudly advocating in public for justice and the rule of law is the right kind of loud.
I want to be loud about our vision instead of only being loud about how dumb he is.

Again, positive reinforcement.
Every Dem Senator but two. There were no Dem yes votes, but that's not the same as saying all no votes. Two just plain chicken out and abstained. One of them (Elissa Slotkin) was rewarded with the opportunity to give the Dem response to Trump's address last week.
Given that the same is true for the other vote (McMahon) that day, I don’t think it was specific to anything about S9.
I don’t trust Slotkin however

And, well, if you believe trans girls are girls, and girls losing in sports is fine, then there's no issue with trans girls sometimes winning high school sports.
