The Anything But Beautiful Bill, LGBTQ+ Funding Woes & Dumb Ohio Bills
President Trump may be calling it a “Big Beautiful Bill”, but LGBTQ+ advocates are saying the budget is anything but. What could this legislation mean for our community? The state of Virginia is rolling back protections against the discredited and harmful practice of conversion therapy. What does this mean for minors there? It looks like the Supreme Court will be wading into whether the handful of trans athletes in the country will still be able to compete. What can we expect judicially?
Joining us this week to talk about those stories and so much more are:
Managing director of News is Out, Dana Piccoli
Editor-in-Chief of the Ohio Capital Journal, David DeWitt.
Communications Lead and Spokesperson for the U.S. PLHIV Caucus and the host of the HIV Unmuted Podcast, Juan Micheal Porter II.
