Colorado Democrats are pushing House Bill 35-1513, one of the most extreme gender ideology bills in the nation. (Is anyone shocked?)
Here's what's at stake if this bill, called the Kelly Loving Act, becomes law:
"Deadnaming and Misgendering" as a discriminatory act
Using people's biologically correct given names or accidentally using the wrong pronoun could now legally brand you a bigot: "Sections 8 and 9 define deadnaming and misgendering as discriminatory acts in the 'Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act,' and prohibit these discriminatory acts in places of public accommodation."Weaponizing custody battles
Parents who refuse to affirm gender confusion could see their rights stripped away in court: "When making child custody decisions and determining the best interests of a child for purposes of parenting time, a court shall consider deadnaming, misgendering, or threatening to publish material related to an individual's gender-affirming health-care services as types of coercive control."Gender ideology forced into ALL schools
Public, private, and charter schools would have no choice but to comply with laws regarding "chosen names" and would be penalized for "deadnaming" or "misgendering" students.Courts will not be allowed to enforce laws from other states that protect kids: Judges will not be allowed to recognize laws that penalize abusive parents who chemically castrate children (puberty blockers) or pay doctors to mutilate their children's genitals ("gender-affirming healthcare").
No more gender-based dress codes
Schools would be powerless to enforce basic standards, opening the door to boys in skirts and biological males in girls' locker rooms.
I'm no Sherlock, but this bill doesn't seem to be about protection — it's about one thing: Control, and keeping radical ideologues happy.
If anything, this puts vulnerable kids directly in harm's way.
Meanwhile, VeggieTales creator Phil Vischer thinks conservative Christian parents are just imagining the Left's deliberate attack on their kids.
What Phil doesn't seem to grasp is that, unlike his talking vegetables, this threat is very real.
