Zooey Zephyr, the transgenderMontana lawmaker who was barred last week from the state House of Representatives for her protests against a gender-affirming healthcare ban, will not be able to regain full access to her seat, a county judge ruled on Tuesday.
On Monday, Rep Zephyr, who incensed Republican colleagues by telling them the ban meant they had “blood on their hands,” sued the House’s GOP Speaker, arguing the expulsion violated her and her constituents’ constitutional rights.
