Greg Abbott (R) just signed into law one of the most punitive and restrictive anti-trans bathroom bills in the nation. “I’m about to sign a law that says no men in women’s restrooms,” he said in the clip, adding that “This is just common sense.”I signed a law banning men in women’s restrooms. Critics of the law, which takes effect on December 4, say that, like all anti-trans bathroom bans, S.B. 8 is unnecessary, as there is little evidence of trans women committing acts of violence in sex-segregated spaces. Far from doing anything to protect cisgender women, it will inevitably lead not only to harassment of trans women but also of cis women who do not conform to rigid standards of femininity.
