The GOP's Anti-Trans Agenda: A Threat to LGBTQ Rights.
TL;DR
Republicans are using anti-trans messaging as a key strategy in their culture wars ahead of the 2024 election, with hundreds of anti-LGBTQ bills being pushed by conservative lawmakers across the country. However, experts suggest that while this messaging may bolster the party's culture wars, it may not mobilize voters as effectively. Only 5% of voters named transgender issues as an issue motivating them to vote in 2022, according to exit polling from HRC.
