So @newyorkstateag.bsky.social told these hospitals six or seven months ago that they would be violating NYS law if they didn't resume providing care for trans youth. It didn't happen; they're now signing agreements to stop forever. At this point, she needs to start suing and prosecuting.

"Rich kids will eat for free too"
is a good thing. A) it reduces stigma for the
kids who need the program.
B) there are very few rich kids. Instead there are rich parents and not all of those are loving

C) all kids should eat

I don't think we should mince words. Transphobia and hatred killed May Pollard. The Idaho legislature killed her as surely as if they'd pointed a gun at her head and pulled the trigger. Anti-trans laws were the gun. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
nbcnews.com
Idaho pushed anti-trans laws for years. Then a teen died.
The life and death of May Pollard, 16, provides a window into the tragic effect that legislation and political rhetoric have had on trans people in America.
