Janus Rose is a freelance writer, editor and musician.>Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is well known in Massachusetts’ LGBTQ community for showing up at Pride events and dancing around in a feather boa. But when her queer and trans constituents asked her to meet with us about legislation that could harm the most vulnerable members of our community, she wouldn’t even look us in the eye.>The first time Sen. Elizabeth Warren threw her support behind the Kids Online Privacy Act (KOSA), the deceptively-named censorship bill once again making its way through Congress, LGBTQ+ and human rights groups warned her that the poorly written bill would be used to erase queer and trans communities from the internet. Now, despite the Trump administration using every tool at its disposal to eliminate LGBTQ+ people from public life, the Senator from Massachusetts has once again signed on to co-sponsor the dangerous bill.>In September of 2025, Fight For The Future joined a coalition of local LGBTQ+ orgs to deliver petitions opposing KOSA to Sen. Warren’s office. The coalition, which represents thousands of queer and trans people across Massachusetts, formally requested to meet with the Senator to discuss KOSA and other bills threatening our LGBTQ+ neighbors.>Instead, Warren ghosted us. And now, she has once again announced her co-sponsorship of KOSA — this time under the looming threat of the Trump administration and its obsessive anti-LGBTQ agenda.
