Happy Pride! It’s not always safe or easy to be your authentic self, but know you are loved and powerful just as you are. This month and always, I am proud to stand with you in the continued fight for true equality.

Wednesday, the NH Senate Judiciary Committee met to vote on HB619, which would ban genital sex reassignment surgery for kids. Sen. Cindy Rosenwald and Sen. Shannon Chandley pushed back against the bill. Sen. Chandley said, “We as legislators should not be engaging in the legislation of the practice of medicine.”
