The repealing or rewrite of a California Senate Bill #132

This petition had 351 supporters

The Issue

To see my Facebook page is to clearly understand my newest quest to protect women behind bars from being bullied and abused due to a door my lawsuit (Norsworthy Vs Beard) opened in April 2015. California Senate Bill 132 Allows for any Man or Woman to claim they are one gender or the other, and they are eligible to be housed in prison consistent with that claim. Research SB132 on your browser and YouTube for background. This petition intends to gather support, allowing myself and colleagues to pursue signatures enabling us to travel to Sacramento and get a re-hearing before the legislature to either have SB132 repealed or re-written. We want actual Transgender Women-Females (not to be confused with crossdressers) and Cisgender women-females to be allowed to participate in a rewrite. But, we need a little help for gas, food, and lodging, to take on the journey to get the voices of incarcerated women heard, which is what did not happen before and during SB132's passing in 2020. I was there when the transfers began. I, Michelle-Lael Norsworthy, am a direct material witness to facts, not the ideal, which, in theory, is excellent. But, the original testimony and thought behind SB132 was to protect trans people from being victimized...I was there when the first 20 arrived, and they weren't victims by any definition of the word "victim." The remainder I must leave for my testimony before the State Congress. My case is a strong standing precedent in the legal world, and I am for "Equal Rights" and not trans rights only. My case was supposed to level the playing field, not open the door for opportunistic parasites to create such a harmful variation, eliminating the state's need to pay for Sex Reassignment Surgery (SRS). Please help us, help the women incarcerated in California. Todah Rabbah.
