A Republican state senator in Arizona broke with his party over legislation that would have banned gender-affirming treatment for transgender and nonbinary minors.
State Sen. Tyler Pace on Wednesday voted with three Democrats, which split the vote among the state's Health and Human Services Committee 4-4, effectively axing the legislation.
"The testimonies we heard today about the many people who are using these avenues of medical treatments to save lives, to improve lives, I don't want my vote to stop those great things," Pace said during the committee hearing.
(I'd be willing to bet that his party soon tries to get rid of him.)
Yep, he'll be dead in the water to his Party now.
