Vote YES on HB2691 and NO on HB2451 on March 15

Please, vote YES on HB2691 and NO on HB2451 when they come before the House Health Subcommittee on March 15.
HB2691:  Tennessee is the only state with a statute preventing a change in gender marker on a birth certificate. In fact, the matter is before the courts now.
If people can change the gender marker on their U.S. passports, there is no reason that people born in Tennessee shouldn't be able to change the gender marker on their birth certificates. Having an updated birth certificate can help people in many situations such as obtaining employment because of the effect birth certificates have on other records.
Tennessee should join the other 49 states in making it possible for our residents to align their birth certificates to their gender identities.
HB2451:  This bill claims to be about parent rights. But it looks more like an effort to micromanage every aspect of the curriculum and extracurricular activities. It will add significantly to the administrative workload of teachers and administrators. Parents can already opt their children out of activities. Schools need to be able to educate students without every activity being micromanaged by the provisions of this bill.
Thank you for considering my views.

Vote YES on HB2691 on March 8

Tennessee is the only state that has a statute that prevents people from changing the gender marker on their birth certificate. It's past time for us to catch up and allow people to correlate their birth certificate to their gender identity.
