Why

Trans and gender diverse people are still subject to the bureaucratic Gender Reassignment Board in order to have their gender legally recognised. Despite promising to amend the legislation in 2022, the state Labor government is dragging its feet as their time in office ticks away. The gender recognition process in Western Australia should be a simple matter of self-declaration, processed through the department of Births Deaths and Marriages, as it is in almost all other Australian states and territories.

Join us to share the experiences we transgender people have with discrimination and the gender reassignment board with the Attorney General, out the front of Dumas house, and demand he #AbolishTheBoard. You can also support by filling out this survey on your experiences. Queer Liberation Boorloo acknowledges that the rally will be held on the land of the Wadjuk Noongar people. Sovereignty was never ceded, always was and always will be Aboriginal land. We pledge our solidarity in their ongoing fight for Sovereignty.
