Seems like a good time to re-up this post. It is a list of 26 Dems at the statewide/national level that have made anti-trans statements or voted anti-trans policies. I do not advocate for abstaining from all of the ones on this list, but if the worst offenders who call us “biological men,” I do.

We're still here. We're still laughing. We're still creating new memories. We're still finding each other and building respite when it's hard. We're still experiencing the joy of each other's company. Someone will ask about this moment one day. Be sure to tell them what they couldn't take from you.

There are three (3) bills on @governor.ny.gov s desk right that would protect Trans people across New York collecting dust right now. This is unacceptable, especially in the current environment, so we're asking everyone to use the following script to let her know she should Sign These Bills!
A script for calling Governor Hochul's office that reads as follows:

NYS Governor's Office: 1-518-474-8390

Hi! My name is ____ and I am a constituent living in ____. I am calling to urge Governor Hochul to sign three bills that will protect the rights of transgender people as well as provide key privacy and healthcare protections for all New Yorkers.

Senate Bill S4914B will protect people accessing gender-affirming care and reproductive healthcare in New York from prosecution by other states. 

Senate Bill S3486 will require hospitals to provide patients and their families with much needed transparency. Additionally, this bill will allow lawmakers and researchers to identify health care deserts in our state.

Senate Bill S929 will protect our private health information from misuse by Big Tech.

Our legislators have worked hard to pass these bills, and I believe that signing them into law will be essential for the State of New York to fight back against overreach by the Trump administration and Republican-controlled states. 

I am asking Governor Hochul to sign all three bills as soon as possible. Thank you.

When Gender Criticals and TERFs are offended by the name Transexual Menace, I say, “Exactly! That’s the point.” [...] The name exposes the absurdity of the pearl-clutching trans-panics repeatedly manufactured by religious conservatives determined to erase any form of gender diversity.

Today we went out to tell The New York Times "Enough is ENOUGH!" with their blatant anti-trans bias. The Times' misrepresentative reporting on trans healthcare has been weaponized by anti-trans policy makers, yet they refuse to listen to transgender voices when they are reporting on trans lives.

Even in when fighting for our community, Ann and Gianna can still find a moment of joy. Trans people are just like everyone else. We deserve healthcare, just like everyone else. We will not tolerate The New York Times "just asking questions" to argue otherwise. Enough is ENOUGH!
