Anti-equality legislators in Arizona are moving quickly to try and pass extremely harmful legislation, affecting all members of the Arizona LGBTQ+ community and specifically targeting trans kids.
SB 1165, which prevents trans kids from participating in sports, passed through committee on January 20th.
SB 1130, which criminalizes gender-affirming care for Arizona youth, will be heard in committee on Thursday, January 27th.
We need you to take action NOW to contact your Senator! The next stop for these bills will be the Senate floor.
