FASCISM. KLEPTOCRACY. OLIGARCHY. I'm sure some think Liberals like myself have used these words a bit too… um, liberally. BUT, the warning signs are real. I tossed these cheat sheets together to highlight the patterns used throughout history to undermine democracies.

If they pass this bill, it will be in direct opposition to all of the people it will impact, and everyone that loves them. This is shameful. SHAMEFUL.
2 hours in and the crowd in support of #transrights is still huge and loud. Trans and queer people of Iowa, there's so much love for you here.

There are some actionable steps in this post. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE - oppose and be vocal about that opposition in as many ways as you can be. This is not the way. We don't want to be the state that got rid of a protected class.
The Iowa House Judiciary Committee just approved a wide-ranging transgender discrimination bill.
It was a mostly party-line 13-8 vote with Republican Brian Lohse joining Democrats to vote no.

I still haven't quite figured out why I stay here. Probably because moving means less people here to fight. Probably because I don't want to give up. But mostly because this shit PISSES ME OFF.

Well this is pure fucking chaos. I've taken care of several babies with ambiguous genitalia. This is just the kind of bullshit I expected from him. Sigh. We are gonna have SO MUCH to undo.
