CO Dems roll out bill to consider ‘misgendering’ discriminatory – Washington Examiner
The Colorado legislature, led by Democratic senators and Representatives, has introduced a bill aimed at addressing issues related to “deadnaming” and “misgendering” in child custody cases. This legislation intends to strengthen legal protections for transgender individuals, categorizing deadnaming—referring to a transgender person’s birth name—and misgendering as discriminatory practices. The bill also directs courts to consider such actions as forms of coercive control. If passed, the law would prevent courts from enforcing other states’ laws that could remove children from their parents for allowing them to access gender-affirming healthcare. The bill has faced prior resistance, notably in California, where similar legislation was vetoed by Governor Gavin Newsom due to concerns over its implications for civil rights. The Colorado bill is set for commitee consideration.
Colorado Democrats roll out bill to consider ‘misgendering’ a ‘discriminatory’ act
A group of Colorado Democrats in the state legislature have introduced legislation to require courts to consider “deadnaming” and “misgendering” in court battles regarding child custody.
As President Donald Trump has signed executive orders affirming only two genders, male and female, and keeping women’s sports reserved for biological females, some Democrat-led states are renewing efforts to sign transgender-focused legislation. In Colorado, Democratic state Sens. Faith Winter and Chris Kolker and state Reps. Lorena Garcia and Rebekah Stewart introduced HB25-1312 on Friday.
The legislation claims to strengthen legal protections for transgender people, including adding to prior laws that it is “discriminatory practice and unlawful to, with specific intent to discriminate, publish materials that deadname or misgender an individual” in places of public accommodation. “Deadnaming” is a term referring to the birth name of a person who identifies as transgender and uses a different name.
The bill would also instruct courts to consider “deadnaming, misgendering, or threatening to publish material related to an individual’s gender-affirming health-care services as types of coercive control,” according to the bill’s summary.
If passed, the legislation would prevent courts from “applying or giving any force or effect to another state’s law that authorizes a state agency to remove a child from the child’s parent or guardian because the parent or guardian allowed the child to receive gender-affirming health-care services.”
The legislation was scheduled for consideration by the Colorado House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday.
COLORADO FEMALE ATHLETES GO VIRAL IN PLEA TO SCHOOL BOARD AGAINST TRANSGENDER ATHLETES
Democratic lawmakers in California had passed legislation that would have required courts to consider whether a parent affirms a child’s chosen gender identity in custody battles in 2023, but Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) vetoed the controversial ruling.
“I urge caution when the Executive and Legislative branches of state government attempt to dictate – in prescriptive terms that single out one characteristic – legal standards for the Judicial branch to apply. Other-minded elected officials, in California and other states, could very well use this strategy
to diminish the civil rights of vulnerable communities,” Newsom said in his veto message.
