anti-trans
Advocates argued that the bill would erase the legal identities of trans, nonbinary, two-spirit and intersex people.
"I feel like I have a voice and I can be heard," said David Gianforte, who made an appeal in a meeting at the governor's office.
The man was accused of posting anti-trans messages and making violent threats in comments under the dictionary website’s definition for “female.”
Republican state lawmakers have called a historic veto session over anti-trans and pro-gun bills that Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards vetoed.
