By State Rep. Supreme Moore Omokunde - Mar 20th, 2025 04:16 pm

MADISON— This afternoon, the Wisconsin State Assembly convened for legislative floor session. Assembly Bill 103, school board policies related to changing a pupil’s legal name and pronouns, passed on party lines, 50-43.

State Representative Supreme Moore Omokunde (D-Milwaukee) said: “This bill is a direct attack on transgender students. There is a Swahili word ‘Kujichagulia’ which means ‘Self-determination.’ To define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves and speak for ourselves, instead of having others do it for us. I want to make it clear that I stand with the trans community as they strive for Kujichagulia.”

Representative Moore Omokunde represents the 17th Assembly District on the North and Northwest sides of Milwaukee.
