Democratic Senators Refuse Vote To Remove Anti-Trans Amendment From Military Budget
www.erininthemorning.com
The move follows passage of the NDAA in the House of Representatives, which will be the first national anti-trans law in recent years.

Some excerpts:

In total, 37 Democrats, 46 Republicans, and three Independents voted in favor of the bill.

Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) led efforts to remove the anti-trans language from the NDAA by introducing Amendment 3332, which aimed to strike the discriminatory provisions. The amendment garnered support from 24 of her Senate colleagues. However, Democratic Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) at some point requested the amendment be withdrawn, opting not to bring it to a vote unless certain of its passage.

    Sigh. I hold very little, if any sympathy for the dogs of American empire, even if they're trans, but this is still terrible to see

    I'm going to shove this in the face of the trans libs I know

        Yeah, we always gotta keep in mind. The dogs of the Yankee Reich tend to be so rabid precisely because they are shielded from 90% of its oppression. Statistically speaking, the ones most affected by these types of policies are the ones who never did anything to support the imperialists (including voting for them or defending them).
