Nebraska lawmakers advance controversial trans health bills.

The Nebraska Legislature has voted to advance a bill that would ban gender-affirming care for minors, despite threats from some lawmakers that they would filibuster the rest of the session. Members of the LGBTQ community who had gathered in the Capitol to protest the bill showed their displeasure with the outcome, booing and cursing lawmakers who voted to advance it as they left the legislative floor. The bill will have to survive two more rounds of debate to pass in the unique one-house, officially nonpartisan Legislature.
