the head of social media for the ACLU in Nebraska, and one of the reporters came up from the local news station and they just asked him if he wanted to make a comment about what happened. He said no. He asked another one of the ACLU staffers if they want to do it and she said no and he goes. Jesse, do you want to? I'm like sure why not? And so yeah, that's how I ended up on the news with that one.
Speaker 2:I just happened to be standing there. Yeah, we need somebody in our community to be interviewed and have a different kind of voice. That's good for you. Next thing we want to talk about is healthcare is healthcare because you and I both know if we don't have, if we stop receiving our medications, hormones, we as a person will probably become very, very imbalanced, depressed and we can't be ourselves. So if we put that, let's say, in a child, like you know, anyone under 19.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's truly distressing. And they're not just coming after the trans youth health care, they're coming for all trans health care and that's been made clear by the American Principles Project. They've started with youth healthcare because they can start saying mutilation and sterilization and then they can say anybody who supports that is a groomer or a pedophile. So it's a way of targeting our community to number one, say we're groomers, mutilators, sterilizers, all of the classic signs of targeting a minority group that you want to exterminate and you want to get rid of. And so they're going to come after the trans health care for adults next in in nebraska. Um, the way the bill was originally written, it prohibited the surgeries, the blockers and the cross-sex hormones and therapy. Um, except for probably, conversion therapy, that would probably be okay.
Speaker 1:What they did is, when they got to the final vote, I don't think they had enough votes for it, and so they sent it back one level to add an amendment that dramatically changed how it was going to do it. They prohibited surgeries, dramatically changed how it was going to do it. They prohibited surgeries, but they left determination and regulation of the rest of the health care to the chief medical officer of the state, the doctor, and then they added a 12-week abortion ban. They had had a six-week abortion ban, that bill that had made it to the final, final round, but they couldn't end the filibuster on it and so it died.
Speaker 1:And so, in an effort to to get this bill passed, they added a 12-week abortion ban to it, uh, and so so it ended up getting enough votes, uh, to go back up. And so, yes, they. They ended up getting enough votes to go back up, and so, yes, they ended up. We lost by one vote. They had just enough votes to end the debate on it, and so it was able to be voted on and passed. And that leads us to where we're at now, which is, we don't know what trans youth health care is going to look like in Nebraska until October.
