"They/them" supports Sacramento becoming a Sanctuary City for transgenders

This is a statement in support of Sacramento city resolution establishing Sacramento as a Sanctuary City for transgenders given by “they/them”, a community organizer, spiritual, gender non-conforming queer parent.

38 people signed up to give statements during the March 26, 2024 city council meeting on this resolution with almost all in support. They had advance coordinated notice of this action and many members of the city council wore badges indicating support for the resolution. Those who may be in opposition had little or no notice unless they were alerted somehow to check for this item on an online agenda for this city council meeting. Basically, this was a resolution with no outreach to the entire city community for review or feedback before coming to the city council.

The supporting statements provided no compelling evidence as to an urgent need for this resolution that was quickly written to be enacted prior to the March 31, 2024 International Transgender Day of Visibility. Imagined victimhood and emotion ruled the day. Data, medical and psychological studies, and laws protecting individuals and families were ignored as if they do not exist. Anecdotal individual statements were given as if they mirrored universal experiences.

By a 9-0 vote, Sacramento CA declares itself a sanctuary city for transgenders and supports these gender-denying procedures on children, even to the extent of not helping law enforcement requests from other cities seeking help to return children to parents when their children are taken to Sacramento for transgender procedures.
