Hb2

Transgendered people in America have made many great strides since the 1990s. They have encountered violence, lack of health care, and the loss of homes, jobs, family and friends. There have been many phases of the struggle of being transgendered in America over the years. The current phase we must be in now is equal rights. There are many variations of discrimination against the transgendered community. In our society we simply do not like what we do not understand. It is easier to discriminate than to try and understand. We are all created different and we should appreciate our differences. The change must come by addressing the views of the public. There is much justification in the unequal rights of transgendered peoples. The Human

It’s not hard to say that America has come so far into society and our freedom. How can our country forget when slavery ended in 1865 and gave women more rights in 1920. However, over time America has ignored the basic rights of transgender people. Transgender people are not any different from African Americans, or women. Why should they be treated any different, they're humans just like everybody else. They deserve the same basic treatment as a human rather than being treated like they're not from this planet. There are transgender people today who are getting harassed and tormented for just going into the bathroom for what they identify as. They should be able to go into a bathroom for which gender they identify as. Rather than making special bathrooms for transgender people that make them stand out and feel like they’re labeling themselves for using.

Recently, the issue of allowing transgender people access to public facilities according to the gender they identify with has caused much debate throughout the United States. The bathroom bill seeks to control access to public facilities of transgender individuals, based on the gender they were assigned at birth. In 2015, bills were passed stating entering a bathroom not assigned to a person at birth was a crime. Surrounded by misconception, the bill does “not legalize harassment, stalking, violence, or sexual assault.” Since the bill arose, there have not been a rise in violence or other incidents in the states protecting the transgender rights (Transgender Equality). The bill simply states if one is living as a woman, to use the women’s restroom,

In recent years, the United States has been struggling to pass transgender rights, and Texas is of no means of an exception. Some of these include bathroom rights. In Texas, the bathroom bill passed through the Texas Senate, but did not survive through the Texas House, resulting in a temporary halt. Even now, the government still question the rights. It is suggested that Texas may need a bathroom bill, but would probably end in some kind of financial consequence, along with many Americans losing their jobs. The Texas Bathroom Bill, otherwise known as SB6, could also fuel disunity within our nation and cause several riots.

House Bill 2, also referred to as the bathroom bill or HB2, was passed into law as the Public Facilities Privacy and Securities Act. There is so much more to this recently passed law than allowing transgendered people to access there bathroom of choice. HB2 sets a certain criteria for who may, or may not be protected against discrimination. A person is only protected from discrimination of the information on their birth certificate and their religion. Sexual preference however, is not protected by state law, and it has never been. This law also removes the standard minimum wage set by a city or county that is imposed on private employers. Schools that depend on federal education funding could be affected by HB2. NC state law requires students to use bathrooms according to their gender. The federal government has a law that does not allow discrimination in any school program, and it also covers sexual preferences under it’s sexual discrimination clause. This law is a disgrace to what the fore fathers of this country clearly stated in the Declaration of Independence.

In Tony Vedda’s article, “Texas Transgender Bathroom Bill Is an Unnecessary Disaster”, the issue that’s being discussed here is should there be a “bathroom bill” for transgenders? Tony Vedda feels as if there shouldn’t be a bill that separates one another from their physical attributes from their true identity. Vedda believes that there is no real evidence that really support the real needs for the legislation. They came up with a solution for the called “SB 6”, which is supposable a solution to problem that doesn’t even exit. Texas is one of the top states that has many cities and school districts that has specific rules and regulation that was put into place, without worrying about the safeties of others. The law officials have seen absolutely

hb2 is a new law ongoing in North carolina. It removes protections for gay and lesbian workers. Permitting an employer to fire them for their love interest. And also requires transgender individuals to use their assigned birth sex bathrooms. Cities in North Carolina are also now not allowed to enforce their own anti discrimination protection laws.

Jensen’s initial reaction when the bill was introduced was that this language was in direct violation of the rights granted by the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution. But the exclusion of rights for the transgender community isn’t a new occurrence; according to Jensen, the Arizona Department of Corrections already has a statue that “specifically denies gender confirmation

In 2015 The North Carolina House passed a bill now referred to as the “Bathroom Bill”, legally known as North Carolina HB2. The direct implications from North Carolina HB2 is that people regardless of current or identifying genders, must use the public bathroom that correlates to the gender on their birth certificate. (“HOUSE BILL DRH40005-TC-1B”) HB2 has been pushed by its supporting lawmakers as a protection on the usage of public bathrooms. Lawmakers claim that the bill is made to protect cisgender individuals, those born to their gender, from transgender individuals, from harassment in the bathroom setting. Yet, there have been zero recorded cases of a transgender individual

The HB2 law shouldn’t be passed because it can cause crime and a lot of angry people also the crime rate would go up tremendously. It will protected men, women and children if the HB2 law isn’t passed because men wouldn’t be able to go in the women bathrooms and women wouldn’t be able to go in men bathrooms. The HB2 law is stopping sports in North Carolina because they think men should go in women bathrooms but North Carolina thinks different and I totally agree with North Carolina on not passing the law. The liberal people that wants the HB2 law passed just wants attention and to start a big argument with the people that think the law shouldn’t be passed. In the bible it talks about men shouldn’t go with men and women shouldn’t go with women and that’s how its supposed to be. The HB2 law is making North Carolina lose millions of dollars just because they want the HB2 law passed.

Did you know that House Bill 2 eliminates any state law claim for discrimination in the workplace based on gender orientation? You can now get fired for your race, religious beliefs, sex, etc. HB2 has been just discrimination against Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Transgender, Transsexuals and Queer people (LGBTQ people). The downfall of that claim was it cited a study that said North Carolina might lose more than $500 million, not that it already had. At the time we found a more accurate estimate of losses was between $77 million and the 201 million (Will Doran). House Bill 2 is referred to as the bathroom law. The prominence of House Bill 2 is to determine the rights of transsexual and transgender people to use the bathroom without discrimination. But the state overrode it and ended up doing harm.

The changing norms of the generation has brought upon commotion between various states because of the presidents judgement. The transgender bathroom policy allows transgender students to use the bathroom they identify as and not by the sex on their birth certificate (Fox News, 2016). The transgender bathroom policy has both successes and failure to ensure safety for transgender students resulting to its change being for not only trans-gender. Gender neutral bathrooms allows safety for those who are not only transgender, but also a part of the LGBTQ community, etc. but it causes a conflict with gender segregation. Adding additional bathrooms to suite other gender preferences costs more money and not everyone is going to accept what they walk into the bathroom and see. The gender neutral bathroom policy should be taken off of hold and be put into action because everything is constantly changing and those who do not identify as the sex they were assigned at birth are at risk for harm.

The bill clearly states in Chapter 17, article 1, sec. 17-1, “It is the policy of the city that all of its residents and persons subject to its jurisdiction shall not be subject to discrimination based on an individual's sex, race, color, ethnicity, national origin, age, familial status, marital status, military status, religion, disability, sexual orientation, genetic information, gender identity or pregnancy.” Fighting for equal rights on the terms of city employment and city services, contracts "between the city and any person for the provision of any works, goods, or services"(Houston), public accommodation, private employment, and fair housing. This bill coming into play will change the lives of many Houstonians, such as my own uncle who is a veteran of the U.S. Navy and my disabled grandmother when it comes to various accounts of discrimination that they could face. The bill does not have much to say about transgender rights on sharing bathrooms besides implying the notion of non-discriminative utilities in Article IV sec. 17-51. H.E.R.O is a proposition that has been put forth in simple terms as a way to gain equal rights across the board, as well as, making Houston an environment free of discrimination and

However, President Donald Trump is moving to reverse Obama-era guidelines on transgender students' right to use the bathroom of their choice in public schools to no rights at all (Kennedy). Certain schools give transgenders the right to choose the bathroom that they're comfortable in, while in other schools, it is necessary to be on a sex-reassignment plan and to have your sex legally renamed in order to use the bathroom you wish. Yet, there are problems which occur in this, “Schools can only require an assertion of gender transition. Requiring a diagnosis or treatment before a student is considered transgender may be unfair to lower-income students without access to such options, advocacy groups say” (Blad). One thing that many don't consider is the setting of income in which these students have. Another issue is that President Trump’s opinions on transgender students has lost federal protections that allowed them to use school bathrooms which match their gender. “In several cases, schools have opted to allow transgender students to use bathrooms that match their gender identity, but complaints from parents or others in the community have prompted schools to reverse their policies” (Kennedy). Even though some parents may be worried of danger involving creeps and predators, it is important to take into consideration the safety

The House Bill 2 has become a huge topic these past few months with its main hot button issue being the accessibility of public bathrooms to the transgender community. For those whom are unfamiliar with the bill it was created and issued by North Carolinas governor, Pat McCrory. The bill focuses on sticking to the gender norms of public and business owned bathroom. Thus making it illegal for someone whom identifies as a different gender than they sex they are born with to enter the bathroom that they see fit. One of the points that McCrory tosses around in order to keep HB2 in a positive light is that it will help protect the women and children in the community from “predators.” Well how does this bill work when it is applied to public schools in North Carolina were children are the main concern? The answer is that it does not work at all. For now, the previous policy for public school bathrooms are going to stay the same thanks to the federal government, but when applied to schools it becomes a toxic environment for everyone who is not cis gendered.
