Spread the word: It’s worth noting that our Michigan Attorney General strongly encouraged “individuals seeking healthcare services” to “consult with legal counsel to understand their rights” under Michigan law. 1/3

There is so much irony in trying to take away trans women and girls bodily autonomy while simultaneously defining us as men. We don’t police men’s health care decisions in this country. WARNING: Cyclical formula!

@corewellhealth.bsky.social has seriously restricted access to evidence based, essential, gender affirming health care for young people and their families. They’ve made a choice to put their patients directly in harms way and force their hard working clinicians to comply with an autocrat. 1/

Statistically, six of the girls in this picture will need an abortion in their lifetime. On the soccer field or off of it, the man with the pen and the shadow administration that props him up don’t give a damn about protecting women and girls.

Yall we literally just had 1,000 LGBTQ+ and allied Michiganders get on a call because they are ready to fight for the trans community, for their kids, and for their relationships. Keep a close eye on this community in Michigan. The bounce back is going to f*****g epic.

Queer and trans Michiganders still have rights. Institutions in Michigan, should under no circumstance, capitulate to these unilateral anti-LGBTQ actions from the executive branch, as many of them are in direct violation of state and federal law, as well as years of judicial precedent.

UPDATE: I’ve now seen bill text that targets record keeping to categorize records according to sex, which they define as being at conception. Two thoughts: 1. Lmao 2. If this is what Rs are doing in lieu of a blanket ban, it’s likely to they’ve interpreted ELCRA to protect against such a ban

A misguided attempt to enforce Speaker Mike Johnson’s anti-trans bathroom policy at the Capitol led to an embarrassing misstep by Reps. Lauren Boebert and Nancy Mace.

These Executive Orders are intentionally vague, confusing, and meant to create chaos. The passage of the Elliott Larsen Civil Rights Act (ELCRA) in 2023 means Michiganders have protections from discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity, and expression.

“It was to feed a base that has hatred and disdain for the trans community, and the nature of the executive order appears to be blatantly discriminatory.” - Emme Zanotti, Director of Advocacy at Equality Michigan Emme is spot-on & took the words right out of my mouth. radio.wcmu.org/local-region...

If your argument requires the President of the most powerful nation on earth to declare via executive order what is natural and what is not, then you can be assured it’s time to revisit your understanding of nature.
