Trans activists march as Florida House passes controversial education bills.

Transgender activists have been protesting at state capitol buildings across the US against legislation restricting gender transition procedures for children and the teaching of gender identity in schools. The protests come in the same week as a transgender individual was identified as the shooter responsible for the Nashville Christian school shooting. LGBTQ activists marched on the Florida Capitol after the state's Republican-controlled House passed a bill restricting the use of preferred pronouns in schools. Protests also occurred in Kentucky and Missouri against legislation banning puberty blockers, hormones, and gender transition surgeries for children under 18, as well as preventing transgender students from participating in sports teams that align with their gender identity.
