What a great win for Georgians, for the LGBTQ+ community, for this country and for humanity!

Thank you Georgia! Good news is so hard to come by, and this is great news. Our brothers and sisters in Georgia can now heave a sigh of relief.

The people of Georgia — alongside the LGBTQ+ community, allies, advocates, and everyday citizens — just showed the nation what solidarity looks like in action.

By standing together, organizing, speaking out, and refusing to back down, they defeated a wave of anti-LGBTQ+ legislation this past session.

This victory is more than a policy outcome — it is proof that when communities unite, fear and division do not win.

Collective voices are stronger than political attacks, and courage is stronger than discrimination.

Georgia has shown us something powerful: progress is possible when people stand shoulder to shoulder, protect one another, and demand dignity and equality for all. This is what winning together looks like — and it’s a reminder to every community everywhere that taking a stand works.

Funny thing is I did a search on this about an hour or two ago not realizing they all ready sin died the legislative session last night. I looked to see if any anti-trans legislation passed. Saw that none passed. Thank you Jesus. That means they can’t stop me at the state level from changing my documents. I expect I will be doing it all this year. Also certainly wanted no bathroom laws either. With what God has shown me I will be able to embarrass this Trump Administration if they try to stop me from changing my information at federal level. They will lose the whole anti-trans narrative at that point and have nothing to run on for mid-terms. God is going to give me favor and help me through these roadblocks or Trumpy boy’s anti-trans agenda will get blown up in court if the devil wants to try and stop me.

Great news!! Could it be that folks are waking up and recognizing hatred and bigotry for what they are? Fingers crossed! Thank you for the reporting, S. Baum!
