New York City Council · Jun 30, 2026 · starts 0:02:23 · 29 sec

Cabán details how the executive order prevents trans students from accessing bathrooms matching their gender identity, participating in sports, and using preferred names and pronouns. She declares the city must be '10 toes down' on protecting children and thanks colleagues for supporting the resolution.

And its executive order prevents them from accessing bathrooms, matching their gender identity, taking part in sports, and using their preferred names and pronouns.

Tiffany L. Cabán

And so our city and state must continue to uphold human rights laws, which protect trans students from discrimination, especially in the face of federal threats.

Tiffany L. Cabán

We need to be 10 toes down on the fact that we are going to protect our children, period.

Tiffany L. Cabán

So thank you to my colleagues for supporting this resolution, and I look forward to its passage.

Amanda C. Farías

Thank you, Councilmember Kavan.
