Sen. Kathleen Kauth who serves in the Nebraska Unicameral has championed protections for our youth during her service.
In 2023, Senator Kathleen Kauth’s Let Them Grow Act banned transgender minors from receiving gender affirming care. In 2024, she tried unsuccessfully to pass her Sports and Spaces bill, which would have required K-12 schools to regulate bathrooms and sporting teams based on sex at birth. This session, Sen. Kauth has introduced three bills that are scheduled for hearings this week. We need conservatives to submit online comments if they are unable to attend the hearings in person.
