HHS has told KY schools to cut all mentions of gender identity, expression, & pronouns from sex ed—or lose $1.4M in grants. KYLP rejects this erasure of LGBTQIA+ students. We’ll fight to ensure every student is seen, safe, & respected. #ProtectTransKids #KYED

"Think of the MAGA majority’s shoddy arguments as a flex, a reminder that five (or six) justices are above accountability. That’s the real legacy of the Roberts Court: a steady erosion of rights dressed up as freedom, with little care as to whether their positions are coherent." — @snipy.bsky.social
The Roberts Court exists to give legal cover to bigots
The majority decision in US v. Skrmetti is the latest example.
