From the article: "Jo Ellis, the transgender Army Black Hawk pilot falsely said to be flying the helicopter that collided with a passenger plane over the Potomac River near Washington, D.C., in January, is suing one of the right-wing commentators who made the allegation.

"Ellis filed a defamation suit against Matthew S. Wallace Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Colorado. She is represented by Meg Phelan, legal counsel with the Equality Legal Action Fund.

“I had a unique opportunity to hold someone accountable,” Ellis tells The Advocate."

Headline: "Spokane City Council Moves to Affirm LGBTQ+ Rights Amid Federal Rollbacks"

Source: @kxly4news

From the article: "SPOKANE, Wash. -- As the federal government rolls back LGBTQ+ protections, the Spokane City Council is taking steps to further safeguard the rights of the local LGBTQ+ community.

"During Monday's agenda review meeting, councilmembers debated an ordinance, proposed by Councilmember Paul Dillon, which aims to affirm the LGBTQ+ community's already existing rights.

"Dillon's proposals include affirming the right to seek gender-affirming care and maintaining an LGBTQ+ liaison officer within the Spokane Police Department to collaborate with the community."

#Maine governor criticizes #Trump administration for freezing funds amid #transgender athlete dispute: ‘It’s not rational’

By Alyssa Vega Globe Staff,Updated April 14, 2025

"Maine #GovernorJanetMills criticized the Trump administration on Monday just days after it moved to cut all federal #education funding to the state. The move came in response to Maine’s refusal to enforce the administration’s directive to ban transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports.
In an interview on MSNBC’s 'Morning Joe' Monday, Mills said the state received a series of letters from federal agencies, culminating in an April 2 letter from Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, which the Maine governor described as 'appalling' in tone and substance. Mills said the next day Rollins threatened to pull all education funding to the state.

" 'Because there are maybe two — at most — two transgender athletes competing in Maine schools right now, they decided to shut off funding for our school nutrition program, the school lunch program entirely, on which 172,000 Maine school #children rely for their school meals. That didn’t make any sense,' Mills said. "
