House Republicans advance education bill restricting discussions on racism & gender

The measure would bar federally funded civics and history programs from promoting what the bill calls “gender ideology” and “discriminatory

It's called H.R. 8705.

Note: the bill is also racist.

These 8 Democrats voted for the Republican national ‘Don’t Say Trans’ bill passed by the House

The ACLU and the House Equality Caucus blasted their fellow Democrats and the Republicans who voted to pass a bill threatening to censor edu

"Here are the names of the eight Democrats who voted for what the House Equality Caucus condemned as the "Don't Say Trans" bill:

Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas

Rep. Don Davis of North Carolina

Rep. Cleo Fields of Louisiana

Rep. Laura Gillen of New York

Rep. Vicente González of Texas

Rep. Marcy Kaptur of Ohio

Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington

Rep. Eugene Vindman of Virginia"

I beg of you to please contact your senators regardless of party. Say what you have to say to get them to vote against. This is incredibly dangerous.

If one of the Democratic quislings in the House represents you, please call them to tell you exactly how you feel about racist and transphobic censorship and their decision to endanger the lives of children through forced outing.

If you can’t safely contact them in person, here are some other options for contacting your Congress Critters:

Here is one that will send your reps a fax: https://resist.bot/

"An evil that great in this beautiful world. Finally, does it matter what the cause?"

"Yes. Because it's our job to stop it."

"Maybe that's all Bob is: the evil that men do. Maybe it doesn't matter what we call it."
