Abbott is ignoring experts on children's issues to cruelly and viciously target transgender young people, businesses that operate in Texas and host high-profile events like SXSW should contact Gov.

Abbott action will be unnecessary harm to trans people and parents of trans youth.

Now is the time for state and local elected officials to work with one another to take the necessary steps as guided by science and local needs.
