On Thursday, Alabama lawmakers passed SB 184, which critics claim outlaws "gender-affirming" care for "transgender kids." In reality, the bill punishes physicians who prescribe puberty-blocking drugs or perform gender-transition surgery on children.
Lawmakers also approved HB 322, which would prohibit self-identifying trans students from using bathrooms that correspond to their gender identities. The bill also prohibits classroom instruction on "sexual orientation or gender identity" for students in grades K-5. The bill is being falsely tarnished as a "Don't Say Gay" bill, despite not preventing use of the word "gay."
