TRC-NJ champions equity, well-being, and safety for the transgender and gender diverse communities across New Jersey. TRC-NJ is building power, securing rights and working for lasting change.
No child should be forced to detransition because their parents are poor. But that is exactly what is happening in NJ. The federal CHIP and Medicaid ban went into effect this month, yet NJ is silent! Tell @mikiesherrill.bsky.social to act NOW! NJ must committ state funds to help trans kids.
The DCCC's decision to fund an ad promoting the exclusion of trans girls from sports is deeply troubling. It legitimizes discrimination and says that children's rights are negotiable for political gain. @menendez.house.gov as vice chair of the DCCC, we hope you will address these concerns.
