Hours prior to its passage, 20 attorneys general, led by Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita (R), sent a letter addressed to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY).

Majority of states considering bills limiting transgender access
Legislators in more than half the states are debating bills to limit access to sports or medical care for transgender people, opening a new front in the wars over LGBT rights that threaten to spill into the courts. Across the nation, at least 35 bills have been introduced to ban transgender students from playing sports in leagues that conform to their gender identity.

Woke Wars: Don’t Be ‘Bullied’ by ‘Left-Wing Campaigns’, Culture Sec Begs Museums
The Conservative culture minister has told the institutions trusted with preserving Britain’s cultural heritage not to let themselves be “bullied” by “left-wing campaigns”, as convenors of museums and other spaces come under increasing pressure from Black Lives Matter-inspired activists to unperson historical figures. Britain’s statues , street names , and memorials most recently became targets for damage and destruction by cultural Marxist protesters during and in the wake of the Black Lives Matter demonstrations sparked by the death of George Floyd last year in the United States. Coupled with the wanton vandalism, many administrators of the United Kingdom’s local governments have capitulated to the pressure, commissioning audits of the names of streets, buildings, and other furnishings of public spaces in case they were named after historical figures who may have been in any way connected to slavery, colonialism, empire, or were otherwise accused of racism. Amidst … [Read more...] about Woke Wars: Don’t Be ‘Bullied’ by ‘Left-Wing Campaigns’, Culture Sec Begs Museums
Charles Dickens Museum Defaced with Graffiti Branding Victorian Author ‘Racist’
A British politician has warned that “our culture is under attack” after reports the Charles Dickens Museum in Broadstairs, Kent, was vandalised with graffiti branding the beloved Victorian writer a “racist”. Charles Dickens frequented Broadstairs during his career, writing and basing some novels in the picturesque seaside town in the south-east of England. He had once lived in the clifftop Bleak House, after which he named one of his most famous novels. A large white house on Victoria Parade had been the inspiration for Betsey Trotwood’s home in David Copperfield . Now home to the Charles Dickens Museum, the Victoria Parade property was vandalised overnight with the words “Dickens Racist, Dickens Racist”, according to a Sunday report in the local news outlet KentOnline.
