Trans Youth Deserve the Same Athletic Opportunities as Other Students - Stop S.B. 1046!
Your help is urgently needed to protect the rights of transgender girls in Arizona! State legislators have introduced S.B. 1046, a bill that would expressly designate sport activities in all public schools to be male, female or coed. This bill is not about protecting young people - it it weaponizing an attack against trans children and youth for political points. Transgender kids want to play sports for the same reasons all athletes do: to make friends, to build confidence and leadership skills, to be physically active, and to be a part of a team. Trans youth are as equally deserving of these opportunities as their cisgender peers. They do not deserve to be routinely and pointlessly scapegoated by adult politicians during election season.
The Trevor Project reports that 85% of transgender youth say that recent debates around anti-trans bills have negatively impacted their mental health, and 52% of trans youth have serious considered suicide in the past year — with 20% making a suicide attempt in the past year.
Send a message to the Governor of Arizona asking him to stop this cruel bill today!
