Peaceful Pee-In Protest at the KS Capitol 2-6-26
ACTION:
• Protest 2-6 @ 1pm. Use the restroom that best fits your gender in the Kansas Capitol. OR Use the restroom that the State legislature has dictated. Trans people deserve to p*e without governmental interference. This is just one of the protests planned for next week. This sh*t-in will be non-violent. All are welcome.
• Tell your reps to uphold the veto.
• Donate to help others attend.
• Spread the word. Attached are two poster options, choose for your audience.
• Shout q***r joy from the rooftops! Love on our trans siblings! Say something when people make transphobic, nasty comments!
BACKGROUND:
SB 244 was rushed through the KS Senate using “gut & go” maneuvers to bypass public opinion. SB244 is considered one of the most heinous and restrictive pieces of anti-trans legislation to have ever been passed. This bill is currently sitting on Governor Kelly’s desk and she is expected to veto. It’s expected that the legislature will vote to overturn the veto the week of Feb 8th.
The bill has 2 parts:
1. Birth certificates and driver’s licenses, issued in KS, that have corrected gender markers will revert to the s*x assigned at birth. Corrected documentation is immediately invalid meaning people won’t have a DL to drive to the DL office to get a new one. Will also affect people born here and have since moved outing them.
2. Multi-occupancy bathrooms (etc) must be divided by s*x assigned at birth. There’s no clear explanation of whether this will affect only state government owned buildings or include other public access buildings. Without a fiscal note, there has been no investigation into how much new construction and renovation costs will be passed on to taxpayers.
3. The bill dictates penalties for individuals and government entities who violate it and encourages the public to attempt to enforce the law themselves.
BONUS: These two unrelated matters can be severed from each other in the case one portion of the law is found to be against the law. Already preparing since Kobach has already lost this gender marker fight in court.
