The 88th Texas Legislature will be remembered for its baseless attacks on queer Texans.
Drag bans. Attacks on gender affirming care. Censorship of queer literature. With a record number of anti-LGBTQIA+ bills proposed in the 88th Texas legislative session, each day brought a new fight for existence for queer and trans Texans. Over and over, we witnessed our obsessed attackers hurl blatant lies and misinformation to push an extremist agenda.
Aside from our allies in the Texas Legislature who proposed legislation to include HIV tests in standard STI screenings, conversations around pre-exposure prophylaxis and sexual health have been occurring less frequently with individuals and legislators alike – to the detriment of our communities. Considering their track record on issues affecting LGBTQIA+ and nonwhite Texans, the Legislature's disregard of racial and class disparities in HIV contraction rates comes as no surprise.
