Tennessee lawmakers approve bill criminalizing adults who help minors receive gender-affirming care

apnews.com/article/tennessee-transgender-care-ban-minors-b7b6700f6a54a3788ec0697f065281b6

Quick Glance: Tennessee Lawmakers Pass Bill Criminalizing Adults Aiding Minors in Gender-Affirming Care

Tennessee's GOP-controlled Statehouse approved a bill criminalizing adults who help minors receive gender-affirming care without parental consent.

The bill closely resembles language from an anti-abortion trafficking proposal approved by Tennessee Republican lawmakers the day before.

Critics caution about the broad application of the law, ranging from discussing care options with adolescents to aiding in travel to states with looser gender-affirming care restrictions.

Tennessee has enacted more anti-LGBTQ+ laws than any other state since 2015, as identified by the Human Rights Campaign, calling it a staggering assault on their constituents.

Approval for the sale was granted during a virtual NHL board of governors meeting held on Thursday afternoon.

The players, draft picks, and the hockey department of the Coyotes will move to Utah to compete for a new, yet-to-be-named franchise.

Quick Glance: Biden Administration Expands Title IX Protection for LGBTQ Students, Assault Victims

The Biden administration released rules that protect the rights of LGBTQ students and change how schools can respond to allegations of sexual assault and misconduct.

The Education Department updated Title IX, the 1972 law prohibiting sex discrimination in school programs, with the changes set to take effect on August 1.

The new rules eliminate in-person court-like proceedings for sexual assault allegations, broaden the definition of sexual harassment, and officially expand Title IX interpretation to cover pregnant, gay, and transgender students.

These changes have sparked mixed reviews and controversy, with supporters praising the increased safety for students while critics argue that the new regulations infringe on due process rights and expressive freedoms.

Quick Glance: Tesla Cybertruck: Pedal Safety Issues

The Tesla Cybertruck has faced criticism for various issues, but now a serious safety concern with the accelerator pedal has led to the temporary halt of deliveries.

A video and reports show that the pedal cover can come loose and jam, causing unintended acceleration even when the foot is not on the pedal.

Deliveries have been halted, appointments rescheduled and canceled as Tesla investigates acceleration issues. A regulatory investigation looms over the company, potentially requiring a recall of all trucks.

Some drivers have attempted to manually remove the pedal cover, indicating a potentially serious safety issue that cannot be resolved through software.
