Teachers fear trans students are becoming political pawns for GOP bills Jo Yurcaba © Provided by NBC News Heather Hughes, a music and math teacher at a private school in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, said a 16-year-old student pulled out her phone Monday afternoon and announced that Gov. Asa Hutchinson had vetoed a bill that would have banned transgender minors from accessing gender-affirming medical care. Hughes said it shows that young people understand the national conversation about trans youth, who are the focus of a wave of state bills that seek to restrict their access to transition-related medical care and sports. “They get that something’s up, and they understand enough to be like, ‘This is a bad idea,’” Hughes said of her students. “They think it s asinine. They don t understand why it s a big deal in the first place, like why bother making these bills, and so then anytime it s brought up, they re mostly infuriated.”
