Trans Lives Matter Protesters Storm Oklahoma Capitol

  • Trans Lives Matter” protesters entered the Oklahoma Capitol on Monday to protest against new bills that seek to ban gender-affirming surgery for young people.
  • Over 100 protesters from Oklahomans For Equality and Freedom Oklahoma started outside the Capitol and eventually made their way inside the rotunda, chanting loudly and waving signs with phrases such as “You can’t erase us” and “Save Trans Lives.”
  • Protesters called on lawmakers to vote “no” against these bills, some that would prohibit gender reassignment care or hormone therapies for those under 18. One in particular, Senate Bill 129, “The Millstone Act,” would ban treatment for anyone under the age of 26 by punishing doctors who provide such services.
