UPDATE: According to legal advocates and multiple passport agencies, the State Department is currently refusing to comply with the judge’s ruling and issue passports with correct gender markers. If possible, wait until further guidance before submitting your passport for renewal.

When all is said and done, Azeen Ghorayshi at the New York Times will go down in history as helping to cause incalculable damage to an entire generation of trans kids. I hope advancing her career is worth dead trans kids. She's absolute scum.

Abortion access was on the ballot in Wisconsin and voters knew it! This is a major win for reproductive freedom in the state.

VICTORY: Voters in Wisconsin just voted to protect a pro-abortion rights majority on their state Supreme Court.

If you’re protesting this weekend, know your rights.

Black graphic with text
“You don't need a permit to protest in response to breaking news and you don't need a permit to march in the streets or along sidewalks, as long as you're not obstructing traffic or access to buildings.
When you are lawfully present in any public space, you have the right to photograph anything in plain view, including federal buildings and the police.If you believe your rights have been violated, when you can, write down everything you remember, get contact information for witnesses, and take photographs of any injuries.If you get stopped by the police, ask if you're free to go. If they say yes, calmly walk away.If you get arrested, you have a right to ask why. Otherwise, say you wish to remain silent and ask for a lawyer immediately. Don't sign, say or agree to anything without a lawyer present.If you get stopped by a member of the military or any law enforcement office at a protest, you have the right to remain silent or to tell them that you’ll only answer questions in the presence of an attorney — no matter your citizenship or immigration status.”

Three questions to ask anytime Trump puts out an executive order demeaning the trans community in the name of "protecting women:" 1) What is he trying to distract us from; 2)Are cis women *actually* protected; and 3)What are the best ways to both respond to bullies and support trans folks?
