SB184, called the Alabama Vulnerable Child Compassion and Protection Act, has been heavily debated for three years. Proponents say the therapies should not be used on minors because of the long-term consequences that they might later regret.
“Never before in the entire history of our country has a state government tried to literally criminalize parents or doctors for providing children with beneficial, necessary, well-established medical care,” said Shannon Minster, legal director of the National Center for Lesbian Rights. “That’s not only wrong; it is unlawful.”
“Governor Ivey and the legislators in the State House are liable for the harm they cause to transgender people’s wellbeing caused by being subjected to repeated legislative attacks on their dignity and humanity,” said Carmarion D. Anderson-Harvey, Human Rights Campaign Alabama State Director. “These vulnerable children are being attacked by our anti-LGBTQ lawmakers to score political points.”
Rev. Julie Conrady of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Birmingham said the legislation will not stop her church and others in Alabama to continue to affirm transgender people. Read more: Alabama’s only openly gay legislator to anti-trans bill backers: ‘Don’t you dare call me a friend’
Don't cave Gov.
So are they protesting because they feel a young child should be able to make their own decisions in having surgery?.🤔What child at a young age even think about changing their sex. I don't see a young mind going that route unless it's encouraged.
WELL I don't have any youths in my house but if I did. .yall can play transformers when they get grown 19..Then when y'all get 18:y'all can cut it up and rebuild it in your house that you buy and pay the bills. Now how y'all like .
A group of 15 PEOPLE including one with green hair! Ok?! 👌🏼

Come on everyone- let’s not hinder progress. Each and every human being on Earth deserves respect and dignity. Let us Alabamans set the best example; let’s not drag ourselves backwards and confirm the stereotypes. There are good people here!!

She’s gonna dodge doing the right thing as expected. It won’t hurt her poll numbers with her base
We had more people at our Superbowl party! Oh, wait. My bad, people actually care about the commercials. So we had more people over to be advertised too, than cared to show up for the Trans bill protest.
