In late February, the Kansas legislature overrode a veto from Governor Laura Kelly to pass a first-of-its-kind law automatically invalidating the driver licenses of trans and non-binary residents, enacting a bathroom ban, and also allowing individuals to sue people they suspect of violating this law. While enforcement is currently paused for thirty days following a legal challenge by the ACLU, if this law stands, it will cause untold harm to transgender Kansans and create a disastrous legal precedent for trans people and their families across the country.

Join Funders for LGBTQ Issues for a rapid-response, members-only briefing to learn about the trans-led work underway in Kansas against SB244, featuring funders and local movement leaders sharing about work on the frontlines to stop this law, its implications for organizing work across the country, and how they are supporting trans and non-binary individuals on the ground.
