Show notes

The Kansas Legislature has renewed its attack on transgender rights with a bill that would ban gender-affirming care for those who are younger than 18. A committee led by Rep. Brenda Landwher, a Wichita Republican, has advanced the bill — after debate on the issue was compromised by preferential treatment of out-of-state interests, transparency concerns, and misinformation from a pair of Republican lawmakers who are also physicians. On this podcast episode, we are elevating the voices of Kansans who have been stifled along the way. They are: Anthony Alvarez, a Loud Light fellow D.C. Hiegert, Legal Fellow for the ACLU of Kansas Iridescent Riffel, a co-chiar of Equality Kansas, and sometimes opinion contributor to Kansas Reflector
