Governor Greg Abbott - Stop Bullying Trans Youth!

Governor Greg Abbott - Stop Bullying Trans Youth!

The Stonewall Democrats of San Antonio leadership team is denouncing the actions of Governor Greg Abbott, who is directing state agencies to investigate gender-affirming care, and claiming that these actions are considered “child abuse”. 

Because Governor Abbott is in a close primary race with other Republican extremists, he has decided to target trans youth, who are some of our most vulnerable citizens. Governor Abbott’s actions put trans youth in harm’s way and his decision is unconstitutional, as it’s interfering with private health care decisions. 

The Republican Party often preaches about “limited government” but their policies are pure hypocrisy. Republicans want to control a woman’s body and now they want to dictate the health care decisions of trans youth and their parents.

We ask that our membership, along with anyone who is supportive of trans rights and equality, to call Governor Abbott at (512) 463-1782 or submit a ticket via this link and demand that he immediately STOP bullying the trans community and to also STOP attacking trans youth!
