A Nebraska State Senator battled tears as she spoke up for abortion and transgender rights in the chamber.<br /><br />Megan Hunt, the first openly LGBT+ member of the state legislature and the mother of a trans child, lambasted lawmakers as protesters chanted against a bill that would end gender-affirming care for young transgender people and tacks on an amendment to outlaw abortion after 10 weeks of pregnancy.<br /><br />“You know what they’re chanting out there? I just got it. They’re chanting ‘one more vote to save our lives,’” Ms Hunt said.<br /><br />“What is wrong with you?”
