Nebraska Legislature Sparks Controversy with Transgender and Abortion Bills.
TL;DR
Nebraska lawmakers, including Sens. Megan Hunt and Machaela Cavanaugh, are vowing to "burn" down next year's legislative session after an intense day of debating abortion and gender-affirming health care. The Let Them Grow Act, a bill aimed at banning gender-affirming surgeries for minors, was combined with a 12-week abortion ban. Sen. Jen Day called out supporters of the bill for leaving through a special exit to avoid those whose rights were being taken away.
