In Texas, a new bill defining legal sex strictly as male or female has passed, denying recognition of transgender, intersex, and gender-diverse people. Authored by Republican Rep. Ellen Troxclair, House Bill 229 passed final votes and will soon be signed by Governor Greg Abbott. Activist Nick Mollberg spoke passionately against this legislation, describing it as harmful and discriminatory, arguing that the bill mirrors historical injustices related to race. Mollberg challenged legislators for their vote, calling them bigots and condemning the bill as a step backward for equality.
Mollberg criticized the bill as "bigoted," arguing it could exacerbate discrimination against trans individuals, akin to historical racial discrimination.
In his passionate address, he emphatically labeled House Bill 229 as bigotry, expressing frustration at lawmakers for perpetuating this harm towards trans communities.
