Some excerpts:

In total, 37 Democrats, 46 Republicans, and three Independents voted in favor of the bill.

Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) led efforts to remove the anti-trans language from the NDAA by introducing Amendment 3332, which aimed to strike the discriminatory provisions. The amendment garnered support from 24 of her Senate colleagues. However, Democratic Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) at some point requested the amendment be withdrawn, opting not to bring it to a vote unless certain of its passage.

Addendum:

Great work transgender NGO, a third of your trans equality champions are restricting transition. Lol.

    Sure, plenty of people will die, but at least the normies will be slightly more comfortable.

    Go ahead, US government, keep giving people more reasons to be frustrated by the healthcare system in this country. Let's see how well this works out for you.

    Sigh. I hold very little, if any sympathy for the dogs of American empire, even if they're trans, but this is still terrible to see

    I'm going to shove this in the face of the trans libs I know

    Yeah, we always gotta keep in mind. The dogs of the Yankee Reich tend to be so rabid precisely because they are shielded from 90% of its oppression. Statistically speaking, the ones most affected by these types of policies are the ones who never did anything to support the imperialists (including voting for them or defending them).

    The fact that online newspapers & shit don't show a list of names who voted which way is in itself a condemnation of our media sphere.

    The major orgs kind of said Michigan "wasn't in their time line" from what I remember in activist calls with Dana Nessel (who is now our AG) They initially denied help with DeBoer va Snyder for the Same Sex marraige recognition. It was grassroots that forced the issue and funded it up to the point the DC crowd couldn't ignore it.

    You might find this case study interesting reading.

    DeBoer v. Snyder: A Case Study In Litigation and Social Reform

    The GoFundMe page is still up. Obviously not acepting donations but you can read the notes history.

    But it was because of this I stopped giving to the HRC and learned how that stuff really operates.
