It's really hard to convey just how massive the scale of legislation has been to target trans people. From a few dozen pieces of legislation in 2015 to over a thousand in 2025. It started with sports bans in 2020 and now we're here. it was never about sports.

A bar chart titled "Figure 1: Anti-LGBTQ bills introduced per year, 2015–2026." The chart displays two sets of bars for each year: "Bills Introduced" (dark red/gray) and "Bills Enacted" (yellow). The data shows a significant upward trend in introduced bills starting in 2020, peaking in 2025 at over 1,000 bills, with the 2026 data representing a partial count as of March 2026. The source is noted as LegiAlerts.org Big Compilation Anti-LGBTQ Legislation Sheet.

Tell me we should trust AI to give us the facts. Tell me it's a future we can put our faith in. Come at me. I'm right here, waiting.
