"With homophobic and transphobic legislation being proposed in state legislatures - it is far past time we act to outlaw discrimination"
“I think it’s a point of extreme Republicans to run on this platform instead of solving the problems that we do have in front of us”
“Today, Republicans are showing their real priorities, political priorities, by considering a trans and intersex sports ban"
The legislation would bar trans youth athletes, stipulating that "sex to be based solely on a person’s reproductive biology at birth"
Priorities for Balint include the Equality Act, a bill that would prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation & gender identity
The bill also recognizes Karine Jean-Pierre, the first Black woman & the first LGBTQ person to serve as White House press secretary
