Nebraska Senator's Personal Standoff Over Trans Rights Bill.

A Democratic lawmaker in Nebraska has threatened to halt the state legislature's 90-day session in protest over a bill banning gender-affirming therapies for kids, which she calls a transgender "genocide." The senator has been filibustering for nearly three weeks, blocking debate on everything, even items she supports. She finally agreed to debate a modified version of the bill after it dropped the restriction on hormone treatments, instead banning only gender reassignment surgery for minors. Bans on gender-affirming care for minors have already been enacted this year in South Dakota, Utah, and Mississippi.
