Protests Turn Violent After Nebraska Lawmakers Pass Abortion and Transgender Restrictions
Arrests Made After Pro-Abortion and Pro-Transgender Demonstrations
Violence erupted at the Nebraska State Capitol building on Friday after lawmakers passed a ban on most abortions after 12 weeks and new restrictions on transgender procedures for anyone under 19. Pro-abortion and pro-transgender protesters threw what appeared to be bloody tampons from the gallery, leading to the gallery being cleared. After the chamber was closed due to the outbursts, protesters chanted “shame, shame” in the Capitol’s rotunda.
As noted by the Lincoln Journal-Star, one woman was arrested after trying to push past a Nebraska state trooper while another protester, who was being arrested for alleged interfering with troopers, was being taken into custody. In all, six people were arrested after the unruly demonstrations at the state Capitol in Lincoln.
Lawmakers Defend Their Votes
Republican Gov. Jim Pillen, who said he would sign the measure, released a statement about the law, saying, “All children deserve a chance to grow and live happy, fruitful lives. This includes pre-born boys and girls, and it includes children struggling with their gender identity. These kids deserve the opportunity to grow and explore who they are and want to be, and they can do so without making irreversible decisions that should be made when they are fully grown.”
Democratic state Sen. Machaela Cavanaugh chanted against the bill, saying, “We need trans people! We love trans people!” Republican state Sen. Kathleen Kauth, who authored the provisions of the bill impacting transgender procedures, said the bill was designed to protect youth from making mistakes they would regret later in life. “It does not mean by any stretch of the imagination that we hate them. Quite to the contrary: We love them,” she said.
Pop Singer Lizzo Speaks Out Against the Bill
Pop singer Lizzo spoke out against the bill during a concert and one legislator rebuked lawmakers for their votes. “My thanks to our State Troopers and Capitol Security Team for keeping our senators, legislative staff members, and our citizenry safe while they gathered to exercise their First Amendment rights,” Republican Gov. Jim Pillen posted on Twitter.
Despite the protests, the bill passed and will become law.
