Thank you so much for writing this petition. I live in MA, and I really want my kids to get the LGBTQ+ education in schools that I never had.
I came out as non-binary only after college, but I think I would have felt much more comfortable coming out to my friends and family who weren't queer if they understood what I was going through, and weren't blatantly homophobic and transphobic. Learning about that in school would have helped them gain that knowledge.
I want my kids to grow up in that environment where they can be safe and will feel comfortable bring themselves, and I think such a law will help. Thank so much for doing this, Emma Roth.

As Jews, a community that has long understood the dangers of systemic oppression and the importance of fighting for justice, we must stand up now for our transgender citizens, who are facing legal and social challenges that threaten their rights and dignity.
We must ensure that we do not repeat the mistakes of history.
It is easy to draw a parallel between Martin Niemöller’s “Then they came...” poem and what we are witnessing today. In light of this, we say...
First they came for the transgender people, and I did not speak out—because I was not transgender.
Then they came for the immigrants, and I did not speak out—because I was not an immigrant.
Then they came for the right to abortion, and I did not speak out—because I did not need an abortion.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
Never again!!

I have a brother who's trans and feels erased & deleted. I hate that!
I am also a queer teen. Last year I was relentlessly bullied for my queerness and I just want to be safe in my own school.
