🚨 ACTION ALERT: A nationwide BOOK BAN BILL has been introduced in Congress: H.R. 7661. If passed, it could censor LGBTQ+ voices, especially transgender people, and force schools across the country to remove books from their libraries.

H.R. 7661 would label any literature or materials referencing “gender dysphoria or transgenderism” as “sexually oriented material.” The bill would then deny federal funding to schools that include these books in their libraries, pressuring educators and librarians to remove stories that reflect the real lives and experiences of transgender and nonbinary students.

Public schools should be places where young people can learn, explore ideas, and see themselves reflected in the stories they read. But this bill threatens that principle by using federal funding as leverage to control what books students can access.

Your member of Congress needs to hear from you NOW. Contact your Representative and tell them to OPPOSE H.R. 7661 and protect the freedom to read!
