Transgender rights under threat in Missouri: A dystopian nightmare for families.

Missouri Governor Mike Parson has threatened to call lawmakers into a special session next month if they fail to approve a plan to restrict transgender athletes and gender-related care for adolescents. The GOP-led House and Senate have approved separate bills aimed at addressing concerns about transgender health care for minors, but neither chamber has given an affirmative vote to those plans amid disagreements over the severity of the restrictions. Transgender rights have become a flashpoint in state legislatures this year for Republicans.
