Allow Transgender Boys in the Boy Scouts Now!
- af: Peter Tomaszewski

Recently, the Boy Scouts of America made a landmark decision in allowing gay and lesbian Scout leaders in their program. While this is a major step, the civil rights battle in the BSA isn't over yet.
Transgender boys are not currently allowed to be members of the Boy Scouts, and their acceptance is only sometimes considered based on a troop's individual membership policy. This means that if a troop doesn't want a transgender boy, they are under no obligation to accept his application.
By signing this petition, we can work together to ensure that all boys have an equal opportunity in the Scouting program, whether they were born one or not. Your support is greatly appreciated!
