Anti-transgender bills introduced in more than a dozen state legislatures – Baptist News Global

While transgender rights are being expanded by the Biden administration in Washington, D.C., bills have been introduced in more than a dozen state legislatures that would narrow rights for transgender persons, especially minors, and for their parents and caregivers.

This year’s proposed state legislation — all of which faces uncertain reception — largely focuses on medical procedures and athletic events. So far, state legislators have not put forth an aggressive effort to pass so-called “bathroom bills” as in several recent legislative sessions. Such bills could still be filed, but for now, Indiana is the only state with a specific bathroom bill on the docket.
