Massachusetts’ second-largest city voted to become a sanctuary for transgender people — one of the first in the country to do so since President Trump took office in January and brought sweeping reform to federal gender policy.
In an overwhelming 9-2 vote Tuesday night, Worcester’s city council passed a resolution declaring the city’s new status, which also applies to people from the LGBTQ, non-binary and greater gender-queer community.
The resolution has no legally binding power but means the city is officially committed to refusing to cooperate with federal or out-of-state entities that would infringe on the rights of trans and queer people. “No city resources…or city property, shall be utilized for detaining persons for solely seeking or providing gender-affirming care,” the resolution read, according to Boston.com.

I’d rather they move it to hell where their ideology belongs!
It’s full.
How many concentration camps have been created to house Trans People? It sounds like they are afraid of train cars.
Who is telling them they are at risk?
I think they are worried their medical expenses are not going to be paid. Does that put them at risk?
What is the function of a city protecting citizens who are not at risk?
It means that there are fewer places that will have fire and brimstone thunder showers
Mentally challenged town
Why do they need a sanctuary city for trans? No risk if being deported, unless they are also illegal aliens
I didn’t know they needed sanctuary. Who’s after them?
The people in white coats SHOULD be after them.
And no one gives a crap. They’ve been in Provincetown for decades.
They have nothing else better to do? Knock yourselves out nimrods.
I still wonder why mexicans are seeking asylum here? Who’s after them?
If all the trannies moved to MA, it would be so much better for the red and purple states. MA can have them all.
“Who’s after them?”
They are all paranoid...among other psychopathies.
“ What is the function of a city protecting citizens who are not at risk?”
This is what will happen after they take control. They will implement policies which would make lil Kim a piker. There will be no children and eventually young couples will move in because of all the real estate that will be up for sale. Eventually, the young will take over, and implement their own policies. The politics may or may not change.
Maybe this is an expansion.
My recollection is that Worcester is a pretty blue collar place, maybe it’s changed.
Freaks, perverts, and democrats.
Pathetic.
I guess that includes free reign of women’s bathrooms for men and children are fair game.
Good point. That was just an abuse of the asylum system by Mayorkas and Biden and Democrats under some kind of ideological bent I don’t quite understand. Probably a lot of graft too, payoffs to their voting blocs, kickbacks, funding for NGOs run by the spouses and children of the politicians. Creating an app so millions of people could register for asylum from, ironically, the safety of their homes and home countries was ridiculous, and unprecedented in scale and scope. Then we just let them come in and even flew them in and around, paid their monthly nuts while needy Americans struggled, while they waited for their asylum hearing dates. Crazy.
I’m sure there are some people who truly need asylum. But it was never used and abused that way before. For the most part as you said they were safe in Mexico. Even South Americans (and Africans and Arabs and others) who may have been at risk from people like Maduro or Xi etc were safe in Mexico while they waited for their claims to be adjudicated. And if the US didn’t grant it Mexico could have. You nailed it with that question.
