Texans gathered at the state capitol on Saturday to celebrate Trans Day of Visibility.
AUSTIN, Texas — Lisa and her 11-year-old daughter Maya were among hundreds of Texans gathering at the Texas Capitol on Saturday April 2. The duo attended the “All in for Equality Coalition” rally in support of transgender rights and Transgender Day of Visibility.
Earlier this year, Gov. Greg Abbott ordered the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services to investigate gender-affirming treatment for transgender children as child abuse. Lisa believes that order is an attack on her family. “The drugs given is a pause on puberty. It is not harmful, it can be restarted at any time and I don’t think people understand that. There aren’t 10-year-olds out there having surgery, that’s not a thing,” said Thronesbery.
