200 Anti-LGBT Bills Introduced in States

Gay USA host Andy Humm and guest host Merryn Johns discuss the 200 anti-LGBT bills that have been introduced in state legislatures so far.

The ACLU has compiled these "bills that target transgender people, pre-empt local protections, and allow the use of religion to discriminate."

Gay USA, the longest-running LGBT news show in history, offers comprehensive news and analysis by and about the LGBTQ community. The program features lively repartee between hosts Ann Northrop and Andy Humm, as well as interviews with special guests. Our goal each week is to keep our viewers up-to-date on the latest developments in the LGBTQ+ community in the United States and abroad.  With decades of experience in journalism and activism, we work diligently to provide historical context for the stories we cover. We strongly believe in LGBT liberation, but we aim to be fair to those who oppose us. Gay USA works to provide a critical perspective on the groups within our movements working to change things.
