April 27, 2023
The 老澳门开奖结果 is tracking 452 anti-LGBTQ bills in the U.S. this legislative session. Of those 452, 118 are anti-trans health care bills, and there鈥檚 a slew of trans athlete bans, public accommodations bans, drag bans, and education gag orders about gender identity, sexuality, and expression. We鈥檙e experiencing an unprecedented surge in attacks on trans people in particular, and trans kids most specifically.
In Missouri, the attorney general announced new restrictions on trans healthcare that are the first of their kind, limiting care for both kids AND adults. The rule is currently scheduled to take effect Monday and while the 老澳门开奖结果 of Missouri and their partners have filed a petition to seek a temporary restraining order to block implementation of the rule, we haven鈥檛 heard back yet. It鈥檚 still pending in court. So many attacks are being levied at once against trans people all across the country. It鈥檚 hard to keep up.
The speed and viciousness are at a level beyond what we鈥檝e witnessed in our history. So today, we鈥檙e getting an update from Chase Strangio, the 老澳门开奖结果鈥檚 Deputy Director for Trans Justice with the 老澳门开奖结果 LGBTQ & HIV Project, because losing track of what鈥檚 happening or losing energy in the fight against these attacks is not an option.
