A republican woman suggested an alternative to the issue of housing trans prisoners that would protect everyone and that wasn’t enough for the ACLU. Because the ACLU believes that incarcerated transwomen should be able to have access to women.

House lawmakers heard testimony Tuesday morning on a bill that would allow state entities to assign people to school sports teams, bathrooms, and prison facilities based on their sex assigned at birth, rather than their gender identity.

HB 1180 modifies the state law covering birth records to allow them to categorize people as either "biological male or female human beings," a binary that is inaccurate and often considered offensive.

At a hearing before the House Health, Human Services, and Elderly Affairs Committee, proponents argued the bill could protect cis female athletes from having to compete on an “uneven playing field” by competing against transgender women.

Rep. Gerri Cannon, Deputy Ranking Democrat on the committee, called the bill in a statement "deeply disturbing, not only because of the ramifications that even the introduction of this has on further stigmatizing the transgender community, but also because it is unconstitutional."

Proponents also say it would protect cis female incarcerated people who don’t want to share a cell with someone who is transgender.

Rep. Katherine Prudhomme-O’Brien, a Derry Republican, is a co-sponsor of the bill. She says right now the prison system has only designated male and female facilities. She suggested housing incarcerated transgender people separately.

“I think it might be good to explore another option, which would be appropriate placement for trans inmates as well,” she said.

Frank Knaack is a policy director with ACLU-NH. He disagreed with Prudhomme-O’Brien's point and spoke in opposition to the bill. He says transgender people are more vulnerable to violence that’s endemic in prisons.

“I think it’s important that the state correct that issue and do so on an individual basis, but not to categorize entire people and segregate people based on those characteristics,” he said.

The New Hampshire Department of Corrections considers the placement of trans people on a case-by-case basis that is aimed at ensuring the incarcerated person's health and safety, and whether the placement would present management or security problems.

Holly Stevens, director of public policy at NAMI New Hampshire, says the bill's existence “sends a message to the trans community” and told committee members that “the longer it stays in this committee, the more harm it’s going to do.”

Sean Locke is director of the state's Civil Rights Unit in the Attorney General's Office. In his testimony, he said the bill could create confusion for schools, which are obligated by state law to prevent discrimination based on gender identity.

Professionals should heed medical evidence so that young people like Keira Bell aren't mired in a culture war

JOSEPHINE BARTOSCH

14 April 2021 • 3:00pm

Keira Bell is a young woman for whom the personal really is political. Now 24, ten years ago as a tomboyish teenager Bell began to notice she was attracted to girls. Whereas once she might have understood her identity as lesbian or bisexual, Bell interpreted her feelings as evidence of being a boy.

Despite a complex history of trauma, she claims not one clinician or youth worker sought to challenge her self-perception as male. Thanks to the woke posturing of children’s charities, it seems today that young people like Bell are increasingly caught in the cross-fire of the culture wars.

She explains: “There was nowhere to find support that didn’t affirm the delusion of being in the ‘wrong body’. No-one told me it was okay to be a girl who didn’t like stereotypically ‘girly’ things or that I was no less female because I am same-sex attracted.”

After beginning puberty-blocking treatment at 16, continuing onto cross-sex hormones at 17 and undergoing the removal of her healthy breasts at 20, Bell began to question her decision.

Today, she feels bitterly let down by the professionals that should have been there to support her. Now in a loving relationship with another woman, Bell believes she effectively went through a form of state-sanctioned gay conversion therapy.

“I feel like it would be an understatement to say that children and young people are being let down by institutions that are supposed to be helping,” she says. “They seem to have forgotten their duty of care.”

Bell is not alone, referrals of young people to UK gender identity services have increased by over three thousand per cent in the past decade; from 77 in 2009-10 to 2,728 in 2019-2020.

To some this is a positive sign of young trans people confident to "come out", to others it is evidence of a dangerous, body-punishing social contagion.

While personal opinions might differ, one would hope that the charities and professional bodies which support children would steer clear of divisive rhetoric. Instead, I fear some have left young people like Bell unsupported.

Alongside "Mrs A", the mother of an autistic child, Bell took the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust to the High Court and won.

The ruling allows for the prescription of puberty-suppressing medication to children only if “he or she is competent to understand the long-term nature of the treatment”.

In practice, this has halted the prescription of puberty blockers to those under 16, though a subsequent ruling permits their use by 15-year-olds in cases where parents offer consent on behalf of their children.

The court noted that puberty blockers are an experimental treatment with unknown side-effects, and that in almost all cases they lead to the prescription of cross-sex hormones.

In October, shortly before the case was heard, Barnardo’s, NSPCC, National Children’s Bureau and the Children’s Society published a joint letter. In it they claimed preventing children from accessing hormone treatments undermined their “agency” putting them “at high risk of mental illness and emotional distress, potentially affecting their long-term future.”

The Bell v Tavistock was a complex ruling on a clinical matter. Rather than prompting reflection among the third sector, in the days following the case more organisations scrambled to plant their flag in the woke, pro-medicalising camp.

Consultant psychiatrist and gender identity specialist Dr Az Hakeem is concerned about the politicisation of some charities, arguing that not everyone who is confused about their gender is transgender.

He says that in almost all cases patients’ distress or confusion is alleviated by appropriate psychological help, but that “various non-clinicians and political activists have managed to capture myriad organisations who only wish to do what is right."

“They have looked to these organisations for help with understanding gender dysphoria rather than to us clinicians," he says. "They then find themselves unwittingly drawn into a political fight.”

He and his colleagues are now experiencing the aftermath of this seemingly organisational capture in young adults “who feel that their lives have been ruined”.

“They feel abandoned by the very clinics and politically motivated groups who want to champion these highly controversial experimental treatments which result in sterility and permanent bodily changes,” he adds.

The politicisation of the treatment of children with gender dysphoria is a phenomenon that spans the globe. Last week the American Association of Pediatrics and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) condemned the decision by the state of Arkansas to protect children from harmful medical intervention to treat gender dysphoria, such as cross-sex hormones and surgery.

The groups which purport to protect the interests of children would do well to consider evidence rather than the invective of lobby groups. By taking a partisan line on such sensitive issues as the treatment of children with gender dysphoria, charities are making political pawns of those they exist to protect.

Their failures will be written into the bodies and futures of young people like Keira Bell for many years to come.

GOP: We just want elections to be fair and square and legal. We're just working with the law to make it fair. The stricter the rights are, the fairer we are.

Translation: We're policing voters practicing their democratic right by punishing every human error caused by government neglect and using the courts to do so. And because we're going to make voter suppression "legal," our voter suppression will be considered "fair."

I keep telling you all, it's not just about taking yourself to the ballot and voting for your Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren or some other presidential candidate, state legislative, judges, and downballots, you gotta actually focus on the voter suppression war that got worst since the 2013 SCOTUS Shelby V Holder decision.

–

Hunt for your Downballot candidates by checking out the nonpartisan Vote411 or find your voting county to request a sample ballot.

Lastly, these are voting rights organizations you can share around.

League of Voters (@LWV) - They might have a local chapter nearby to join. You can volunteer without official membership at most chapters. Paying for membership can get you into leadership positions to decide pivotal organization choices.

Common Cause (@CommonCause) - This organization has been doing a lot of work fighting gerrymandering.

Spread the Vote (@SpreadTheVoteUS) - an organization dedicated to helping people get IDs ahead of Election Day.

ACLU - The American Civil Liberties Union

Black Voters Matter (@BlackVotersMtr)

Fair Fight Action (@fairfightaction) - Founded after Brian Kemp’s rampant voter suppression during the Georgia 2018 gubernatorial election.

Jolt Initiative (@JoltInitiative) - To motivate the Hispanic vote as well as fight language barriers.

TN Black Voter Project (@TN_VoterProject) - A Tennessee org that turned in more than 90,000 voter registration applications and they’re now fighting a load of voter suppression by Republican bills criminalizing voting registration.

Move Texas (@MOVE_texas) - A nonpartisan grassroots in Texas that has mobilized youths to register to vote.

New Hampshire Voting Grassroots NH Voters Restoring Democracy Tirrc Votes (@TIRRCVotes)

Four Directions (@4directionsvote) - Fighting for Native Americans’ voting accessibility.

This is me

Yesterday I spent the whole day with a group of AMAZING humans, all coming together to learn from each other. The ACLU NH (American Civil Liberties Union) fights for civil rights for the people of New Hampshire. They held a workshop style class to teach us how to be effective with lobbying to New Hampshire Legislators as well as providing testimony for bills they support.

March 6th, 2019

Alex M. Azar II Secretary U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

Scott Gottlieb Commissioner Food and Drug Administration

John Michael Mulvaney Director Office of Management and Budget

Sent via electronic mail

Re: FDA proposed rule banning electrical stimulation devices

Dear Secretary Azar, Commissioner Gottlieb and Director Mulvaney,

We the undersigned write to express our deep appreciation to see that the final rule for the proposed ban of electrical stimulation devices (ESDs) used to treat self-injurious or aggressive behavior has been placed on the Federal Drug Administration (FDA)’s Fall regulatory agenda. For nearly three years since the FDA initially released its Proposed Rule to ban these devices, and for almost five years since a panel of experts recommended that they be banned, children and adults with disabilities have continued to suffer from painful and dangerous electric shocks. We are relieved that the FDA finally plans to formally recognize what people with disabilities, disability advocates, researchers, psychiatrists and psychologists, families, and the United Nations have long known: these are devices of torture and abuse, and their use must end. We are pleased to see that the agency intends to take action in the coming year to end this abuse.

We further wish to reiterate what we expect from the final rule: a complete, immediate ban of the use of ESDs for behavior modification. In recognition of the severe harm these devices inflict, and in light of the abundant evidence the FDA has reviewed, we do not believe any sort of “phase-down” period or any form of “grandfathering” is warranted. Given the extensive time the FDA has taken to develop the final rule, as detailed below, we urge that it be released in its final form by the 5th anniversary of the panel–April 24th, 2019. Following the issuance of the rule, we expect the FDA to take prompt action to enforce the ban and ensure the safety and well-being of individuals known to have been subject to ESDs. Secretary Azar and Commissioner Gottlieb, we ask that you devote any and all resources necessary to swiftly review comments and finalize the rule with an immediate effective date and no further delays. Additionally, we call on the White House to take all steps necessary to ensure that the rule is expeditiously finalized and released.

As you know, concerned citizens and advocacy organizations first wrote to the FDA in March 2010 and again in January 2013, urging that the FDA ban these dangerous and unnecessary devices. In addition, in December 2012, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services issued a letter making clear that use of the graduated electronic decelerator device, and other Level III aversive techniques, is prohibited for individuals receiving Medicaid-funded home and community-based services. Advocates met with FDA representatives in April 2013. A year later, on April 24, 2014, the FDA held a day-long hearing and convened an advisory panel to seek scientific and clinical expert opinion on the risks and benefits associated with other treatment options, the risks and benefits of ESDs for aversive conditioning, and on whether these devices present a substantial and unreasonable risk of illness or injury. The FDA additionally solicited public comment, and deliberated for a full two years before announcing on April 22, 2016 that it had determined that these devices present an unreasonable and substantial risk of illness or injury that cannot be corrected or eliminated by labeling. Despite having had multiple public comment periods related to the device, FDA allowed an extension of the comment period on the proposed rule from a deadline of May 25 to July 25, 2016. It has now been over thirty months since that comment period ended.

The FDA is mandated to protect the health and safety of these individuals and must not delay further.We appreciate the swift action the FDA has taken under Commissioner Gottlieb’s leadership on many products which threaten the health and well being of Americans, particularly young people. Just this past month, the FDA warned against the potential dangers of teething necklaces and jewelry productssometimes used by autistic people for sensory regulation. We urge you to treat this matter with the same urgency. In the nine years since this issue was raised to the FDA, some of our nation’s most vulnerable people have been subjected to unbearably painful electric shock for such harmless behaviors as getting out of one’s seat, interrupting, whispering, slouching, swearing, or failing to maintain a neat appearance. As the proposed rule recognizes, disabled children and adults are experiencing dramatic short and long term effects from this abusive treatment every day. They cannot afford to wait any longer. We the undersigned urge HHS and the White House to prioritize and take all actions necessary to ensure this critical rule is immediately finalized and implemented.

If you have any questions about this letter, please contact Julia Bascom of the Autistic Self Advocacy Network at [email protected], or 205-558-4894.

Digital Contact Tracing Apps: all known protocols

When it comes to Digital Contact Tracing app, it's very important to determine what tracing protocol has been implemented by the app itself. As you might already know if you've read the huge debate that dominated the home page of most newspapers all around the world during the recent COVID-19 emergency, one of the largest privacy concerns raised about the usage of centralised report processing by protocol such as PEPPT-PT, as opposed to the decentralised report processing protocols such as TCN and DP-3T. Centralized vs Decentralized approach In a centralized report processing protocol a user must upload their entire contact log to a health authority administered server, where the health authority is then responsible for matching the log entries to contact details, ascertaining potential contact, and ultimately warning users of potential contact. Conversely, decentralised report processing protocols, while still having a central reporting server, delegate the responsibility to process logs to clients on the network. Tokens exchanged by clients contain no intrinsic information or static identifiers. Protocols using this approach have the client upload a number from which encounter tokens can be derived by individual devices. Clients then check these tokens against their local contact logs to determine if they have come in contact with an infected patient. The major benefit of decentralized protocols - which makes them great in terms of privacy compliance - is that the government does not process nor have access to contact logs, this approach has major privacy benefits. However, such approach also presents some issues, primarily the lack of human in the loop reporting, leading to a higher occurrence of false positives; and potential scale issues, as some devices might become overwhelmed with a large number of reports. Decentralised reporting protocols are also less mature than their centralised counterparts. Here's a useful list of the available centralized and decentralized protocols nowadays.

For those screaming "just vote Trump out," at least pay attention to the effects of Trump's court-packing like this where judges like her argue that people can't fight for voting rights, especially considering the effects of the 2013 Shelby V. Holder decision. The fight is more than just filling out your individual ballot. You should donate your time and money to nonpartisan voting rights groups like League of Women Voters, Common Cause, or local voting grassroots. Educate your friends and family about these assaults on voting rights. And don't forget your downballot candidates.

More consequential dispute lurks just beneath the surface of this case. Alabama raised a separate argument that could have ruinous consequences for the VRA: It challenged the constitutionality of Section 2’s results test. This test prohibits election laws that place a disproportionate burden on minorities, even if they were not enacted with discriminatory intent. Branch conspicuously declined to reject this claim in a footnote that should put civil rights attorneys on high alert. Conservatives have been searching for a case that could take down the VRA’s results test, and NAACP v. Alabama might just be the one.

The conservative effort to sabotage the results test rests on the distinction between disparate impact and discriminatory intent. It is exceedingly difficult to prove that legislators enacted a law with discriminatory intent because few are foolish enough to leave behind a smoking gun demonstrating their racist goals. By contrast, it’s fairly easy to prove that election laws have a disproportionate effect on nonwhite voters. The VRA’s results test bars voting restrictions that have a racially discriminatory result, even if they weren’t proved to have a racially discriminatory purpose. Without this test, voters would have little hope of blocking voter ID laws or racial gerrymanders that have an outsized impact on communities of color.

Donate to the nonpartisan League of Women Voters - Alabama

Lastly, these are voting rights organizations you can share around.

Common Cause (@CommonCause) - This organization has been doing a lot of work fighting gerrymandering.

Spread the Vote (@SpreadTheVoteUS) - an organization dedicated to helping people get IDs ahead of Election Day.
