At the Kentucky Capitol on Wednesday, Leading with Conviction 2019 graduate and Kentucky State Representative Keturah Herron spoke out against the passage of Senate Bill 150, which will target LGBTQ+ youth and is the most restrictive anti-trans bill in the country.
Dozens of protestors joined House Democrats to stand against the danger the new law will pose to Kentucky youth by banning access to gender-affirming healthcare, prohibiting school staff from being required to use correct pronouns for gender non-conforming students, and more.
As the first openly LGBTQ+ Kentucky House Representative, Herron says, “The only time that we’ve had a lot of people in this building, in this Capitol, was when we had been taking away their rights. It was the teachers’ rights; it was abortion rights; today, it’s trans rights. What’s it going to be next year?”
