If you want to know why you must support Rep. Justin Sparks in his bid to become the next Missouri House Speaker, here's one of the reasons why:
Remember when we told y’all that when MO Amendment 3 said “reproductive healthcare”, it included “gender affirming care” aka mutilation?

Jon Patterson, a completely fake Republican, thinks he has the position in the bag. Let's disabuse him of that notion. Amendment 3 was the turning point. Patterson won't oppose it. Amendment 3 allows abortion up to the moment of birth, and will allow for transgender surgeries and no accountability for botched abortions or trans surgeries. Amendment 3 must go down in flames in order to protect babies, as well as youth who are in danger of mutilating surgeries.
"On day one, your speaker must address and tackle Amendment 3. Overwhelmingly in Missouri, polls show that Missourians want restrictions on abortions.

And yet, with Amendment 3, what do we have?
Unrestricted abortion. Taxpayer-funded abortion. And if the person performing… pic.twitter.com/V1TFcJlemn

Do you think it's important to know what your local school's official policy is regarding transgender issues? Should it be easily accessible to parents and students?
Should trans 'girls' be able to go in the girls' bathroom? Should trans 'boys' be able to go in the boys' bathroom? How is that handled at your school? What if your school's officials were allowing transgender kids to use staff bathrooms in order to accommodate them and avoid any issues with other students? Should parents be informed of the policy?
What about students who are hiding transitioning at home, but being open about it at school? Should parents be informed if a student requests a different name or affirms they are a different sex than at birth? How accommodating should the school be? For transparency's sake, does your school spell out how transgender students are accommodated?
Are all parents informed if a child transitions in their child's classroom?

If a student affirms their status as a transgender individual at school, how are school counselors and nurses instructed to handle it? At what point, if any, are parents informed? How informed is your school's staff about transgender issues? What resources and training are being used to instruct them? Are school staff medically and psychologically trained on all aspects of the issue? Do they affirm the child automatically?
Is the child referred to an outside resource like Burrell? What about The Trevor Project? Is WPATH (World Professional Association for Transgender Health) any part of your school's counseling and health protocols? Should parents be aware of what resources are being used to aid transgender students?
Does your school policy differentiate between very young students and older students who are dealing with transgender issues? How are other students instructed when a transgender child presents in school?
What is your school's policy regarding sports? Can transgender students play sports on a team that is not reflective of their biological sex? What about other school districts who may insist that transgender students can compete when your school's policy is different?
What legal issues are involved? Are your school board's attorneys well versed, or are they risk averse?
So many questions. Citizens should begin asking their school boards for answers. If you don't get answers that satisfy (and you won't), keep asking. Be loud and insistent. Don't let your school hide behind evasion and deception. Make your school grapple with these hard questions and be transparent. Your children are counting on you.
