Lmao, what losers, like they could do anything to build support among their voters and they’re out here trying to gin up support by stoking transphobia.
- They are the party if fear of anyone different, so if they started being accepting then they wouldn't be able to demonize the Dems.

It won't pass, but it's a reminder of what they will do when in power.
Please vote.

I work in the public sector myself (though in a different country). I constantly find myself wondering if this is in my future too.
- I'm well aware. I know the effort will be made, but whether it happens depends on political outcomes here.
- If you're in Europe, then with the way things are going in a lot of countries here, I wonder the same.
  
  Here in Spain we just got a progressive left leaning coalition government... that right the other day split into a "trans-inclusive feminist march" and a "trans-exclusive feminist march", with the populist right-wing addon march of "the country is breaking apart".

A good reminder for folks to get their passports and birth records corrected post haste. Don’t be afraid to seek assistance and/or mutual aid for the cost.
IANAL but legal documents should retain validity under Article I (ex post facto) so long as you pre-empt legislation barring gender amendment.
If you want to be extra proactive, make sure your medical records reflect the correct gender and your providers use the male/female hypogonadism diagnosis.
Plan for the worst and hope for the best.

I keep trying to vote Cruz out, but no matter how many times I smash the button it only counts one vote.
- Have you tried committing election and voter fraud like the Republicans?
