Abbott's directive required professionals who work with kids to report parents of kids like Cass to the TX Dept of Family and Protective Services or face possible criminal charges. It encouraged other people to report trans kids to authorities as well. https://t.co/btyxYM66iv — PolitiTweet.org

For Texas teen Cass Jackson, who uses they/them pronouns, being transgender meant feeling like their truest self. Then came Gov. Abbott's directive to investigate parents of medically transitioning kids for child abuse. https://t.co/btyxYLP3gv — PolitiTweet.org

As Cass learned about the directive, they said their mental health crumbled. Cass said everyone knew they were trans and that their mom was a counselor in their school district. Cass couldn’t stop thinking about their mom’s career and the danger of their family being reported. https://t.co/6G1g8vXL0Y — PolitiTweet.org
