Utah Board of Education member Natalie Cline will be stripped of her committee assignments and prohibited from attending some board meetings.

Utah’s Board of Education voted to censure one of its members and called for her resignation on Wednesday after she appeared to falsely suggest a teenage girl was transgender on social media.

Natalie Cline, the censured board member, posted a flyer for a Salt Lake City high school basketball team on Facebook last week, suggestively writing: “Girls’ basketball…” Although the post was later deleted — and it was revealed that the girl is not trans — Cline received a chorus of criticism from Utahns across the state last week, including from Gov. Spencer Cox.

In addition to being censured, Cline will be stripped of her committee assignments, prohibited from attending the board’s advisory committee meetings and forbidden from placing items on the board’s agenda, the board said.

    What exactly does a “chick” look like?

    You see you are looking straight into the Pandoras box of whats literally the ultimate goal of GOPs transphobia?

    Women must fall into this very specific definition of what they believe a women must be. Even down to appearance. If a women isn’t tall, blonde, white, and beautiful than she’s not a woman and undeserving of equal treatment under the law. Even the accusation is enough to control who’s perceived to be a real woman
