Almost 400 anti-LGBTQ+ bills have already been filed this year – more than the total number filed in 2022.
The bills have been filed across 38 states, with legislation more than tripling since January. The American Civil Liberties Union tracks these hateful bills with a map that allows viewers to search by state, issue, or status. It says 7 of these bills have become law, 322 have advanced, 43 have been defeated, and 17 have been introduced as of publication.
The state with the most anti-LGBTQ+ bills is Oklahoma, with 35, Missouri, with 34, and Texas, with 29.
School and education is the top category under which the bills fall, with 184 targeting students and teachers. The second most common category is healthcare, as politicians nationwide seek to ban gender-affirming care. 108 bills currently target healthcare.
