Kentucky lawmaker Pam Stevenson delivers incredible speech as trans rights protesters storm hearing
Apr 01
Written by Maria Morava
Amid a chaotic debate in the Kentucky House of Representatives over Senate Bill 150 one of the harshest anti-trans bills in the US lawmaker Pam Stevenson delivered an impassioned speech on trans and human rights.
Representative Pamela Stevenson strongly reproached her colleagues on Wednesday (29 March) as trans rights protesters who had stormed the building were being arrested and escorted out.

We have created an environment of hate and then we look at them like theres something wrong with them, Stevenson said. First you hated Black people, then you hated Jews, now youre hating everybody. So the question is, when its the only people left will you hate yourself?
Senate Bill 150 has been described by activists as the most oppressive anti-trans law in the country, banning all gender-affirming medical care for trans people under 18 and requiring doctors to detransition minors in current care.
This year has already seen over 470 anti-LGBTQ+ bills the highest ever introduced across the nation. The discriminatory bills include bathroom bans, sports bans, drag bans and Dont Say Gay or Trans bills.

According to Ackers Facebook page, She was born in Seattle, Washington, and grew up in both Colorado Springs, Colorado, and Boise. Acker had previously served in the U.S. Army as a forward observer.
Acker was one of the victims of a tragic shooting at Boise Towne Square mall, which also resulted in five people injured. She was working security at the mall at the time of the shooting, according to her friend Dominique Cairistiona. Her family said Acker ran toward the suspect to stop him, likely saving many lives. The other individual who was fatally injured in the shooting was 49-year-old Roberto Padilla Arguelles.
In a statement, the Boise Police Department said the following: Evidence indicates the suspect was contacted by a security officer on the first floor of the building near a department store on the west side of the building. The suspect shot the security officer who died at the scene.
Ackers family told the media that she was a hero and the type of person that always wanted to help people. They added that she will be greatly missed. Another one of Ackers friends, Shiloh Ren, told the media that Acker will be remembered as a radiantly sweet person. In a statement provided to a local news outlet, Ackers older sister, Tiffany Luna, said Confronting someone whom she viewed to be a threat to others or a bully was entirely within her character even prior to enlisting.
