otherkinnewsThe site LegiScan.com is for tracking US legislation. It lets you arrange to receive email alerts for whether any new bills use keywords you're interested in. It recently notified me of a new one that mentions Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), which is a form of plurality.
General info about the bill and its main purpose: US Congress Senate Bill 2394 is for opposing the rights of transgender youth. This bill is harmful for human rights. Four Republican Senators introduced the bill on July 19, 2023: Sen. Tom Cotton (Arkansas), Sen. J.D. Vance (Ohio), Sen. Josh Hawley (Missouri), and Sen. Marco Rubio (Florida).
How the bill also involves plurality: The mention of DID happens once, on page 2, line 25: "... regardless of any medical diagnosis or indication of gender dysphoria, body dysphoria, dissociative identity disorder, or social anxiety disorder." You can see this line in the PDF of the bill as it was introduced.
Progress toward law: Currently, the bill is at 25% progression, meaning it hasn't passed yet. You can follow its progress on LegiScan here, or on the bill's US State Legislature page. If you live in the US, you can help stop bad bills from becoming laws. To learn how, look up how to provide legislative testimony.
