ezs note:  South Dakotans - hey, Dennis Daugaard is a nice guy.  However, he's receiving tons of e-mail asking him to pass this misguided bill.  You can make a difference by sending a polite e-mail  explaining how you, your family member, or your friend is going to jump through unnecessary hoops if this silly bill is passed, and he should veto this bill.  Thanks. 

Gov. Daugaard, you met a transgender person: me

ezs note:  South Dakotans - It's listed about halfway down, but moronic legislators are trying to force transgender students to use their biological bathroom in school, no matter how uncomfortable it makes them.  Tell your legislators to say NO to this idiotic bill.  Oh, and turn Reps. Fred Deutsch and Jim Bolin out on their ear in November!
