Protecting kids proved bipartisan in Colorado as moms reached across the aisle to take a stand against gender ideology legislation threatening custody rights.
Democratic Party lawmakers in Washington, D.C. were hardly alone when it came to advancing the Marxist whims of their alphabet activist supporters. Now, more than two weeks after the Colorado State House took a Sunday to advance gender ideology, a Colorado mother and a California parental rights activist have joined together in an effort to stop so-called “misgendering” and “deadnaming” from breaking families apart.
Monday on Fox News’ “The Faulkner Focus,” Protect Kids Colorado Director Erin Lee and attorney Erin Friday, a lifelong Democrat, joined host Harris Faulkner to decry the “totalitarian” HB 25-1312 which, if signed into law, would give courts cause to take custody from parents who refused to buy into the “preferred” gender identities of their own children.
“This is giving the authority to our state to take our children away if we don’t agree with these gender transitions. And so it’s got huge ramifications for all parents, especially those in custody situations who are fighting with their ex-spouses to stop their children from being medicalized,” said Lee.
“But it opens the door for all parents to potentially have their children forcibly removed by the state if they’re not willing to affirm their child’s mental health distress,” she went on as her social media account promoted Colorado state Rep. Ken deGraaf’s (R) HCR25-1003 which sought to amend the state constitution to protect parents’ rights “to direct the upbringing, education, and care of their children.”
