This is a real Idaho lawmaker, who makes real decisions about real people's lives, calling Pride flags "sex flags." 😵‍💫 Make it clear to your reps that anti-LGBTQ+ laws like HB 41 (the flag ban on public school property) go against Idahoan values: http://plannedp.info/id-anti-lgbtq-bills

Thank you, Attorney General Brown! 👏👏👏 All people deserve the right & opportunity to live authentically & without fear. Affordable health care & bodily autonomy save lives. Trump’s attacks on gender-affirming care aren't rooted in science or fact — they're rooted in pure discrimination. #WALeg
