The SAVE America Act would make it harder to vote for many groups, including trans people. The truth? Trump and his allies are seizing control of the voting process because they know they can't win on their policies. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/03/repu...
On the Kansas law passed last week, State House Rep. Abi Boatman writes: "All Kansans, including those who are LGBTQ+, should have the freedom to move through everyday life without government interference and incentivized harassment." www.ms.now/opinion/kans...
1,700 Kansans will have their driver's license invalidated due to a cruel new law from far-right legislators that says gender markers must reflect residents' sex assigned at birth. We must stop hateful laws that endanger trans people. apnews.com/article/tran...

Federal workers keep our country running—but under the Trump administration, many trans employees of the government have been discriminated against and even fired. 19thnews.org/2026/02/lgbt...
Far-right legal organizations are handing out sample anti-trans bills to state legislators, creating an efficient pipeline for spreading hate and disinformation. The good news? Our movement is still defeating roughly 90% of these policies every year. prismreports.org/2026/02/09/a...
Bad bill vetoed! Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly said: "I believe the legislature should stay out of the business of telling Kansans how to go to the bathroom and instead stay focused on how to make life more affordable for Kansans.” www.advocate.com/politics/sta...
Because of Trump's "big beautiful bill," many patients on Medicaid are unable to use their coverage at Planned Parenthood. This has greatly limited affirming and affordable options for trans patients, worsening existing gaps in health care access. 19thnews.org/2026/02/medi...

A 200-page document on harassment has been rescinded by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission due to a brief section on gender identity—yet another example of how anti-trans policies impact *everyone.*

There is still time to fight back! The public comment period for both rules opens TODAY. You can make your voice heard and urge HHS to drop the rules here: act.hrc.org/page/183931/... (3/3)
This is yet another attempt from Trump and RFK Jr. to intervene in the private medical decisions of families and trans youth. The first rule presents an impossible choice to parents on Medicaid, while the second threatens medical centers for providing health care. (2/3)
Yesterday, RFK Jr. and the Dept. of Health and Human Services proposed two anti-trans rules. The rules would:
1️⃣ Prohibit federal Medicaid coverage of gender-affirming care for youth
2️⃣ End Medicaid/Medicare funding for hospitals providing gender-affirming care to minor patients. (1/3)
As Trump's Department of Health and Human Services continues their campaign to effectively ban gender-affirming care, Rep. Greene's bill is moving to the Senate. Contact your senators now and tell them to vote NO on this dangerous bill: action.transequality.org/a/vote-no-mt...
JUST NOW: HHS proposed two rules that would effectively ban gender-affirming care for trans youth. If implemented, the rules would end Medicaid coverage for this care, taking away parents' ability to choose the best path for their families. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
Earlier tonight: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's bill effectively banning gender-affirming health care for youth passed in the House. This is a serious attack on parents' ability to make *private* medical decisions for their families. www.advocate.com/politics/mtg...
