Sen. Loki Tobin of Anchorage is leading the charge against gender-specific bathrooms in the schools in Alaska.
In response to the Alaska State Board of Education voting to address through regulation the leftist push for transgenders taking over girls’ high school sports, Tobin, a Democrat, likened it to terrorism.
“The way this kind of terrorism works is that it not only punishes expression, condemns identities…it’s like burning a cross on someone’s lawn: It’s an attempt to frighten people into compliance and submission,” she wrote.
The board is setting a 30-day public comment period for a proposed regulation that would preserve girls’ teams in high schools across the state from being taken over by boys who describe themselves as transgender girls.
Twenty-one states across the nation have passed laws that are similar to the one being proposed by the Alaska State Board of Education and Early Development. Bills in the Alaska House and Senate have failed to move forward in the Legislature, as they are being blocked by Democrat members like Sen. Tobin, and some Republicans who see themselves as champions against what Tobin calls terrorism.
