With your help, we’ve defeated nearly every anti-trans and anti-queer bill since 2023 — and together, we can do it again. Here’s all the legislation we’re tracking so far this year:
House Bill 107 and Senate Bill 79, the “What is a Woman Act”, would enshrine medically inaccurate definitions of “male” and “female” into the very first section of Alabama code. They would be used to deny trans folks the ability to change their gender markers on their legal documents, and as the basis for bathroom restrictions. (Indeed, Senate Bill 79 was itself a far-reaching bathroom ban before being substituted in committee.)

House Bill 67 could punish innocent transgender Alabamians simply for being present at schools or libraries. The bill’s main goal is to ban drag performances, but it is written such that transgender people would also be impacted. It also bans transgender youth from sleepaway camps.
House Bill 4 would add the intentionally vague term “gender-oriented conduct” to the state obscenity law. It would ban books about queer and trans people from young adult sections in libraries, and jail librarians for refusing to participate in censorship. It could also make trans people’s mere presence in libraries or K-12 schools legally questionable, and opens everyone up to harassment by anyone who takes issue with their appearance.
Mack Butler will likely re-file his expansion of our existing “Don’t Say Gay” law through 12th grade, which would further isolate queer and trans youth at an already vulnerable time in their lives, sanction bullying from their peers, and make it even more difficult for queer and trans educators to be hired in Alabama.
