As Twitchy reported a couple of days ago, progressive Virginia delegate Elizabeth Guzman went after “a misleading news piece from a Sinclair-owned affiliate that mischaracterized a pro-safety, anti-abuse bill I introduced in 2020 to protect LGBTQ youth.” So why did you agree to do the interview with a Sinclair-owned affiliate? “Because Gov. Youngkin is a bully and I will always stand up to bullies,” she explained.
The TV interview made it appear as though parents could be thrown in jail for not “affirming” their children’s gender identities. First, of course, Child Protective Services would be called in to see if there was a problem, and penalties would stem from that — allegedly.
Ian Prior has posted a short segment of a podcast on which a woman working with Guzman on the legislation seems to let the cat out of the bag.
VIrginia Democrats claimed @guzman4virginia didn’t criminalize parents for not affirming a child’s “gender identity” – despite Guzman clearly saying so on camera.@7NewsDC now reports that a woman working on the bill with Guzman made it just as clear on a recent podcast. /1 pic.twitter.com/OCTEGAIlWv

Following @7NewsDC original report last week, and the Virginia Democrats’ reality-bending pushback, the podcast discussing the bill is no longer available online. /2

The @APSVirginia counselor working with @guzman4virginia to make it illegal to affirm a child's biological sex doesn't "worry" about parental rights or consent. @ARLnowDOTcom https://t.co/9F8fdyzEiT

That’s right … The Daily Wire’s Luke Rosiak did a piece on this a couple of weeks ago. Schools are working with the Pride Liberation Project, which promises to “rehome” children who aren’t accepted by their parents.
The woman working with Guzman is the Arlington Public Schools counselor who forges parents' signatures.
She claims she "had a record day where five kids came out to me… Most of the time it’s like, ‘I think I’m trans,’ which really means ‘I am trans.’”https://t.co/s7q9CtD32j

Must have polled terribly. “Earl, cleanup on aisle 3”.

We’d be interested to see this debated live on stage. Just how far are legislators trying to go to get their hands on LGBTQ minors whose parents just aren’t interested or capable of “affirming” them?
