CA AR113
Resolution
AI Summary
- Designates August of each year as Transgender History Month in California
- Recognizes historical contributions of two-spirit, transgender, gender-expansive, and intersex (2STGI) individuals to California, including early support organizations, civil rights uprisings like the 1966 Compton's Cafeteria Riot, and contemporary leadership in government and culture
- Acknowledges rising anti-LGBTQ+ legislation nationally, with over 500 anti-LGBTQ+ bills introduced in state legislatures during the 2023-2024 legislative year, disproportionately targeting 2STGI people
- Commits the Legislature to increase awareness of 2STGI leaders and remove barriers facing 2STGI communities, individuals, and families while upholding human rights for all
- Selects August specifically because it commemorates the 1966 Compton's Cafeteria Riots in San Francisco's Tenderloin District, now designated as the world's first transgender cultural district
