It\u2019s looking good; we\u2019re coordinated,\u201d Schneider attacked legislation in conservative states that deal with transgender issues, claiming, \u201cThey\u2019re really scary. Some of them, in particular, are denying medical services to trans youth. Those are life-saving medical treatments. These bills will cause the deaths of children, and that\u2019s really sad to me, and it\u2019s really frightening.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schneider was asked if there were any plans to do any \u201cactivism or lobbying against these efforts at the state level,\u201d Schneider answered, \u201cNot at the moment. I am trying to figure out where that sort of advocacy and activism fits into my life. Everything\u2019s changed in the last few months and I\u2019m still playing it by ear; I would like to do more of it, but for right now I\u2019m just not sure what the right and effective way to do that would be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked, \u201cWhat are you hoping your visit to the White House accomplishes today?\u201d Schneider responded, \u201cI think just the same thing that I\u2019ve been accomplishing, which is, just, again, being a trans personality out there that isn\u2019t monstrous and isn\u2019t threatening and is just a normal person like we all are. So the more that people like me can be seen, the harder it is to sustain the myths that are kind of driving this hate and fear.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s your message to students living in those states?\u201d a reporter queried.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHang in there,\u201d Schneider intoned. \u201cI think that this backlash right now is temporary. I think that the country overall is on our side, and getting more so every day, and I think it\u2019s not gonna be too long before these sorts of bills are seen as a thing of the past.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Amy Schneider (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Jeopardamy?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@jeopardamy<\/a>) visits White House Press Briefing Room. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2Rvu2AwvhT\">pic.twitter.com\/2Rvu2AwvhT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 CSPAN (@cspan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cspan\/status\/1509609780838637571?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 31, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In December, Schneider who became <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/newly-crowned-jeopardy-winner-dubbed-highest-earning-female-ever-is-actually-a-man\">the highest-earning contestant<\/a> who identifies as female ever after winning for the 18th consecutive time beating out the former record-setter, Larissa Kelly.
