Republican leaders seek "disciplinary consequences" for silenced Montana transgender lawmaker Zooey Zephyr, letter says
CBSN
A Montana transgender state House member who has been prevented by her Republican colleagues from debating a bill on the House floor that would ban gender-affirming care for minors announced late Tuesday that she will be subject to a disciplinary vote on Wednesday.
State Rep. Zooey Zephyr posted a letter to her Twitter account she purportedly received from GOP House leaders Tuesday night which states that a motion will be presented on the House floor Wednesday afternoon to determine whether Zephyr's "actions" during a rally Monday on her behalf necessitate "disciplinary consequences."
The House will be asked "to determine" if Zephyr's "conduct" on the House floor on Monday "violated the rules, collective rights, safety, dignity, integrity, or decorum of the House," the letter reads.
