Greg Gianforte to reject any legislation that reaches his desk — including the governor's own child. David Gianforte — a resident of Bozeman, Montana, who identifies as nonbinary and goes by both "he" and "they" pronouns — has kept an eye on a slate of state bills that they believe would strip back LGBTQ+ people's rights. One would ban gender-affirming health care for minors, one would severely restrict public drag performances, and one would define "sex" as a binary in Montana law.
