Several Alabama politicians say they are concerned about children’s safety at Huntsville’s Space Camp after a parent complained about the presence of a transgender employee.

U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville and Reps. Dale Strong and Robert Aderholt posted statements on X, formerly known as Twitter, after a parent posted on Facebook complaining about the gender identity of one of the U.S. Space and Rocket Center employees. The topic was also picked up by the Libs of TikTok account.

    There’s also the right-wing obsession with “grooming” and protecting kids from “sexualization”. It happened with gay people 50 years ago and now it’s trans peoples’ turn.

      Oh don’t worry, they’re working their way back to gays as quick as they can. And then interracial couples will be next on the list after that.

      All the while their actual “high ranking” members are known to be a bunch of pedophiles. Conservatism is a cancer.
