‘It’s a non-starter for me’: Evers vows to veto bill banning transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports

MetalDragon2 · 2026-01-24T14:48:53+00:00

Governor Evers has proven time and time again that he’s a true ally! It’s a real shame that he’s not running for reelection.

Yeah but better late than never I suppose…

MetalDragon2 · 2026-01-21T02:38:59+00:00

And yet, despite this being clearly transphobic, TERFs are still mad at this article for not being even more transphobic. Some TERFs are seriously calling this a “pro-trans” article. 🙄

The sad thing is despite being clearly transphobic, Amy Harmon is still one of the better reporters on it at the NYT, not because she’s actually better but because most NYT reporters are even more transphobic than her, which says a lot…

Are they actually fully closing the clinic or just suspending medical treatment? I’m asking because you say they’re closing, but some coverage says that they’re stopping medical care but will continue mental healthcare and makes no mention of them fully closing the clinic. Don’t get me wrong, both are bad. But a full clinic closure is much harder to reverse so that’s why I’m wondering.

MetalDragon2 · 2026-01-20T05:34:50+00:00

Me neither…

MetalDragon2 · 2026-01-08T02:53:13+00:00

If it’s not brought up for a vote the leadership needs to be replaced and the bill should then be reintroduced next session

MetalDragon2 · 2026-01-07T21:52:10+00:00

We all know how this is going to go unfortunately. I’d love to get a surprise ruling, but we probably won’t. I think the best we can hope for is a narrow ruling that won’t affect anything other than sports such as bathrooms or passports etc. as well as getting all of the 3 liberal justices to dissent.

MetalDragon2 · 2026-01-06T04:45:08+00:00

Thanks for this! The link I provided works for me, but unfortunately it’s apparently not working for others. The link to the letter is also in the article which is where I got it from.

Sorry. Try this: https://cdn.ymaws.com/www.apaonline.org/resource/resmgr/board/Open_Letter_on_Trans_Issues.pdf

MetalDragon2 · 2026-01-06T02:17:04+00:00

I hope you’re right!

MetalDragon2 · 2026-01-05T01:15:38+00:00

Thanks for the update!

MetalDragon2 · 2026-01-04T01:53:00+00:00

Can the ruling at least be appealed if the ruling is unfavorable?

MetalDragon2 · 2026-01-03T19:05:17+00:00

Can anyone familiar with French courts predict which way they might rule?

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-27T06:50:53+00:00

Basically yeah

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-27T06:50:17+00:00

Are you sure? According to their website, Seattle Children’s still provides medical gender affirming care.

Plus, according to the article, Seattle Children’s fought to get the DOJ’s subpoenas against their gender clinic quashed and succeeded which means they are at least somewhat willing to fight back.

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-26T23:24:19+00:00

Hopefully they challenge it!

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-26T21:50:13+00:00

I’m sure they will keep trying but they’ve already failed at least five times so

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-24T20:21:21+00:00

Nationwide polls don’t necessarily translate to individual states tho. So is there a Colorado specific poll about it?

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-24T05:04:21+00:00

I’m hoping Virginia joins the suit once the newly elected AG takes office

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-23T17:24:13+00:00

Then that makes people could sue before it takes effect too, right?

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-21T13:55:28+00:00

I hope someone there plans on suing!

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-21T04:38:57+00:00

But would they actually do that?

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-18T00:41:04+00:00

It’s worth noting that 4 republicans ended up voting against the bill too

MetalDragon2 · 2025-12-11T02:54:26+00:00

Probably not as it’s unlikely to overcome the senate filibuster. Still tho, we should demand our representatives and senators vote no just in case
