How did an art club drive this girl to want to take her own life?

A Colorado mother believed her sixth-grade daughter was staying after school for a harmless art club. Who would be concerned about an art club?

But the art club was a secret, adult-led discussion on sexuality and identity by people with the Gender and Sexualities Alliance. These activists told her and others:

• “If you’re not 100% comfortable in your body, that means you’re transgender.”

• “If you don’t know who you’re attracted to, you’re queer.”

• “What you hear here stays here.”

• “Don’t tell your parents!” and more.

They urged the children to instead see the school as their new safe family — and warned that parents might not be safe to share with their feelings with or understand their situation!

This horror is happening across America. But if Congress passes the so-called Transgender Bill of Rights (H.Res. 1058) this poisonous ideology will spread like wildfire. Parents will be kept in the dark. Children will be indoctrinated.

Fax Congress immediately and demand they vote AGAINST the Transgender Bill of Rights.

The “Transgender Bill of Rights” represents the most extreme LGBTQ wish list. At the core of this ideology is open rebellion against God, who created us in His image. The LGBTQ ideology essentially says that God made a mistake so we will create ourselves in our own image.

The Transgender Bill of Rights will set the stage to amend and expand federal civil rights laws — including redefining sex discrimination to include gender identity in schools, shelters, sports, bathrooms, locker rooms, health care, public accommodations, and employment. It strongly encourages overriding parental involvement, urges access to “gender-affirming” medical interventions for minors (drugs and surgical mutilation), and views any disagreement or hesitation as unlawful discrimination.

It will turn what happened to this one 12-year-old girl in a Colorado “art club” into a nationwide policy direction with the full weight of the federal government behind it — and radical states will use this as political cover to shove this agenda even further into America’s families and schools.

This is why we need to push back now. Tell Congress to stop this resolution in its tracks. Oppose the Transgender Bill of Rights.

The reality is, at age 12, many healthy kids are not thinking about who they are attracted to, or the perverted indoctrination pushed by these groups! Their leaders know this and manipulate children into thinking they should reject the biological fact that they are male or female.

Most of these children are struggling with the normal discomforts of puberty. Some also struggle with autism, trauma, or social isolation. They were not born in the wrong body. With love, time, and protection from this ideology, up to 95% of minors who question their identity naturally resolve their confusion without any intervention and accept that they are male or female from birth. But the Transgender Bill of Rights would accelerate the harm and prevent help.

This 12-year-old girl heard that she was both transgender and queer. Then the adults did what is called “glitter bombing” — handing out swag and trinkets to the kids conforming to their brainwashing, using stickers and flags to manipulate these kids to go even further down this rabbit hole.

Children were told that parents “might not understand.” The school became a place of secrecy instead of trust.

The girl came home saying she was “transgender.” The mother was blindsided. What followed was a spiral of confusion, emotional isolation, and darkness. Their daughter began to pull away, hiding thoughts and struggles they never imagined would enter their home at such a young age. By the time her parents understood what was happening, it was almost too late.

Their daughter didn’t bring them art — she brought them a suicide note!

Her father later said it was only through patient, loving, and honest conversations with his daughter that trust was rebuilt — the very trust the “art” club had tried so desperately to destroy. The family slowly began emerging from emotional confusion and isolation, returning to a healthy place where their daughter could once again accept herself as she truly is.

The Transgender Bill of Rights would sideline parents and drive people like this 12-year-old girl to suicidal thoughts — or worse.

We have the opportunity to help vulnerable children and families.
