Yeah you can see the incredible uptick in legislation illustrated here: https://translegislation.com/learn

Over 500 bills alone this year, over twice as many as the year before. It's clear there's a rich reactionary coalition who really don't like the icky trans people

Thanks for the link! Looks like a great summary of current events. I am (sadly) aware of the stakeholders behind a lot of these discriminatory laws, and their inadequate and offensive excuses for passing them. But Florida seems to have a special flavor of toxicity. A friend of mine who grew up there says most of the state has been a garbage fire for decades.
