Already, many in the military have spoken up about how this will harm their families. While up until this vote, Democrats had stayed united in shutting down federal anti-trans legislation, over one-third of the caucus voted to pass this bill. Stand with us in demanding our elected officials not allow fascist bullies to put trans kids in harm's way. This will not stop here -- if this bill passes, why would we expect them to fight for us in the future, when there are already 84 anti-trans bills on the table in Congress? Sign this petition to pledge to vote with conscience and send a message to these legislators that they might be slipping on protecting marginalized communities (children even!) but you won't and that none of us will forget. https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/a-commitment-to-reject-anti-autonomy-politicians
