11 States Come Together To Bring Down Obama According to recent report, Texas and 10 other states are suing the Obama administration over a new directive about transgender students in public school. The lawsuit, which was announced on Tuesday, includes Oklahoma, Alabama, Wisconsin, West Virginia, Tennessee, Maine, Louisiana, Utah, Arizona and Georgia. The case follows a directive to U.S. schools to let transgender students to use the bathrooms and locker rooms that match the gender they identify with. Our local schools are now in the crosshairs of the Obama Administrations, which maintains it will punish those schools who do not comply with its orders, Texas Attorney General Paxton commented. This represents just the latest example of the current administrations attempts to accomplish by executive fiat what they couldnt accomplish through the democratic process in Congress. By forcing through his policies by executive action, President Obama excluded the voice of the people. Conservative states have taken a stand against the measure, and the lawsuit accuses the Obama administration of running roughshod over commonsense policies that protect children. So far, North Carolina is the only state to have passed a law actually preventing transgender individuals from using whichever restroom they prefer. Though similar legislation has been introduced in other states, it has either been vetoed or failed. Legislation is still pending in eight states. So now the federal government is gonna tell almost every private sector company in the United States who can and who cannot come into their bathrooms, their restrooms, their shower facilities, Republican Governor Pat McCrory told reporters at NBCs Meet the Press. North Carolina is also being sued by at least three other groups, including the American Civil Liberties Union.
