according to the article, california’s own anti trans sports bill hearing is set for 04/01/2025.
the bill is AB 89.
if you’re in CA, you obviously can’t trust democrats to do the right thing without some persuasion.
& in case you’re wondering, yes, gavin newsom’s podcast *is* mentioned. 🧵

I want to make it clear that no executive order can change federal law and every executive order trump has signed has expressly disclaimed the intent to. The screenshot is from the DEI EO. That’s before you get to courts actually blocking big parts of it. And yet the overcompliance is legion.
