Montana’s Republican-controlled state legislature voted Wednesday to bar transgender state representative Zooey Zephyr (ZoAndBehold)
Tension between Republican lawmakers and Zephyr arose as legislators announced on Tuesday that they would be holding aher actions “violated the rules, collective rights, safety, dignity, integrity, or decorum of the House of Representatives.”
The decision comes a week after Gov. Burgum approved a measure that restricts transgender healthcare for children, and two weeks after the governor signed two bills into law that seek to ban transgender girls and women from joining female sports teams from kindergarten through college. The law states that a person’s gender is based on the reproductive anatomy they had at birth. Supporters of the legislation say the language in the law is particularly vague, meaning it can also apply to any gendered spaces,
“Because these gender transition interventions lack a solid evidentiary foundation and pose very serious side effects, they are unlawful under Missouri law absent sufficiently protective guardrails,” BaileyThe rule, which was set to go into effect on Thursday, would have made the state the first to ban gender-affirming care for people of all ages, but the move was blocked by a judge on Wednesday.
