Lauren Boebert just tried to ban all trans-related care for active duty service members, veterans, and military families. But two Republicans voted against it, adopting the common sense viewpoint that no one should have to choose between their service and their family getting the care they need.

RFK Jr's HHS tried to rip all Medicare and Medicaid funding from any hospital that dared to provide transition healthcare to trans youth. We asked you to flood the comment period and fight back, and you did. And now RFK has given up on this effort. Proof that solidarity works.
The University of Kansas is barring a trans employee, Siobhán Kirchstein, from using the women's restroom because of SB 244. The law voided trans Kansans' IDs and criminalized using public restrooms that match their gender. Her community's answer? Gender-neutral signage in that very restroom.
On this #NonbinaryPeoplesDay, we uplift our nonbinary siblings through visibility, pride, and community. We remind our audience that the most important thing is to treat people with respect, and to approach unfamiliar identities with kindness and willingness to learn.

The Montana Supreme Court just ruled that trans discrimination IS sex discrimination! They built a constitutional shield around every trans Montanan that the U.S. Supreme Court cannot touch. While Kansas is stripping trans people of their IDs, Montana just drew a hard line in the other direction.
This #TDOV, being visible is a risk– but it also one of our greatest resources. That's why our team launched Operation Lifeboat, an emergency response program led by national trans organizers. Our work is grounded in the fights led by those before us, and rooted in our love for our community.
The Tennessee State House passed a bill that would build a public registry of trans Tennesseans’ medical records. Every American should have the right to privacy-to discuss with our doctors in confidentiality. Tennessee Representatives are trying to take away that right, for all of us, with HB 754.

The Trump administration has now removed both the pride flag and trans pride flag from the Stonewall National Monument. A year ago, the National Park Service removed all references to LGBTQIA+ figures from the web page on the Stonewall Monument. Now the flags are gone too.
A new Fox News poll reveals that Americans across all demographics prefer the way Democrats engage with trans issues than Republicans. It’s really that simple. Most people don’t like bullies and just want everyone to be treated fairly. Voters get it. It’s time our lawmakers do, too.
