A Missouri state senator reduced children who identify as another gender to an episode of Kids Say the Darndest Things.
On Tuesday, the Senate's education committee heard testimony on Senate Bill 98, which would prevent children in public schools from using bathrooms and locker rooms that don't correspond to their "biological sex."
The bill is opposed by groups like PROMO, a statewide LGBT organization. Elizabeth Fuchs, PROMO's public policy manager, warned the committee that the bill puts transgender students at increased risk for harassment, bullying and violence.
