Justice Department Challenges Alabama Law that Criminalizes Medically Necessary Care for Transgender Youth | OPA | Department of Justice

S.B. 184 makes it a felony for any person to “engage in or cause” specified types of medical care for transgender minors. S.B. 184 thus discriminates against transgender youth by denying them access to certain forms of medically necessary care. It further discriminates against transgender youth by barring them from accessing particular procedures while allowing non-transgender minors to access the same or similar procedures. The penalties for violating the law include up to 10 years of imprisonment and a fine of up to $15,000. S.B. 184 would force parents of transgender minors, medical professionals, and others to choose between forgoing medically necessary procedures and treatments, or facing criminal prosecution. The United States’ complaint alleges that S.B. 184 violates the Equal Protection Clause by discriminating on the basis of sex and transgender status.

Today’s filing is the latest action by the Justice Department to combat discrimination based on gender identity, including unlawful restrictions on medical care for transgender youth. On March 31, 2022, the Civil Rights Division issued a letter to all state attorneys general reminding them of federal constitutional and statutory provisions that protect transgender youth against discrimination.

The complaint in intervention is being handled by Deputy Chief Coty Montag and Trial Attorneys Alyssa Lareau, Kaitlin Toyama, and Renee Williams of the Civil Rights Division’s Federal Coordination and Compliance Section; John Powers, Counsel to the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights; Assistant U.S. Attorney Jason Cheek for the Northern District of Alabama; and Assistant U.S. Attorney Stephen Wadsworth for the Middle District of Alabama.

LAPD officers shoot man holding a cellphone – Los Angeles Times

Video posted online this week by the Los Angeles Police Department shows two officers approach a man they believed was armed with a gun in South L.A. in March and immediately shoot him .

Jose Barrera, 45, did not have a gun or any other weapon, but was holding a black cellphone and waving it around. He survived.

The shooting is the latest in which LAPD officers opened fire after misjudging the threat posed by an individual, in part based on inaccurate claims from others — including 911 callers — that the people were brandishing firearms.

Opinion | Elon Musk reveals how his Twitter purchase may fuel right-wing extremism – The Washington Post

Elon Musk, the most powerful Twitter troll in our soon-to-be interplanetary species, has spent the past 24 hours trolling Democrats. In tweet after tweet, he has claimed the Democratic Party has lurched into leftist extremism, leaving no option for noble centrists — a class that coincidentally includes Musk himself — but to turn toward the GOP.

Et maintenant pour le Parti II du defi pour être Adulte, apés avoir fait les six choses avants:

Avant-d’être-Adulte, les Adultes, et les Rites de Passage …

Chers Amis voici une autre idée  pour vous :  Un nouveau rite de passage .

On a besoin d’un nouveau rite de passage dont chaque adolescent doit a son plein gré  enseigner quelqu’un, de zéro, une habilité utile et   important . Il doit être une habilité dont la personne a besoin dans le monde réale, par exemple d’alphabet jusque au lire les livres simples, ou d’énumérer jusque aux tables de multiplication , ou d’écrire un sentence jusque au un essai, ou de pas de anglais jusque au l’anglais passable dans les états-Unis.     

Ce projet doit exiger un investissement sérieux de temps (de préférence deux ou trois heures par jour) pour au moins an ans . Ainsi le jeune peut être fier…

Florida Man Charged with Hate Crimes Following Use of Vehicle in Racially-Motivated Attack Against a Black Man Driving with His Family | OPA | Department of Justice

Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke of the Civil Rights Division and U.S. Attorney Roger Handberg for the Middle District of Florida announced today that a federal grand jury in Tampa, Florida, returned a two-count indictment charging Jordan Patrick Leahy, 29, with committing hate crimes for his racially-motivated attack on a Black man who was driving along a public road in Seminole, Florida.

The indictment alleges that on Aug. 8, 2021, Leahy willfully intimidated and interfered with J.T., and attempted to injure, intimidate and interfere with J.T. through the use of a dangerous weapon (Leahy’s vehicle), because of J.T.’s race and color, and because J.T. was traveling on a public road in Seminole, Florida. According to the indictment, J.T.’s girlfriend and daughter were also in the car with J.T. when Leahy allegedly committed the attack.

Hearing Aid Company Eargo Inc. Agrees to Pay $34.37 Million to Settle Common Law and False Claims Act Allegations for Unsupported Diagnosis Codes | OPA | Department of Justice

The United States alleged that, from Jan. 1, 2017, through Jan. 31, 2021, Eargo included unsupported hearing loss-related diagnosis codes on claims for hearing aid devices that Eargo submitted to the FEHBP and on invoices — called superbills — that Eargo provided to FEHBP beneficiaries to obtain reimbursement for such devices from the FEHBP. The United States further alleged that between Feb. 1, 2021, and Sept. 22, 2021, Eargo continued to include these unsupported hearing loss-related diagnosis codes on claims and superbills — even after completing an internal review of its billing and coding practices in January 2021 — resulting in Eargo knowingly submitting or causing the submission of false claims for payment to the FEHBP.

the sweetest nectar

sites: Develop. Inspire. Transform, and on Twitter.

with the wind at my back
I relax

and
sit inside all the glory before me

the blooming flowers
and the resplendent arches on the trees
as they hang with the most delicious fruit seen

they drip with the sweetest nectar
a life in transience and shelter

from the pain
deep inside the veins trees

for it is me
I see

living inside the contexts beneath
the washed out scene

delivering to us all
the gift of humanity
