hi, cis folks!
if we *are* going to talk ACA, RFK's HHS proposed a rule to remove *all trans care* from ACA essential health benefit status.
~25mil people are insured by ACA & if 1% are trans, that's 250,000 people who'd lose access to care.
that's bad! take 2 minutes to stand with trans people.🧵

Make no mistake, we will win this fight. While there are lots of folks who don't know trans people well, they are repelled by the immense power of the federal government being brought to bear with such dishonesty and cruelty.

For every dollar of federal research funding in the United States, universities generate between $2.30 and $3.00 of economy activity, much of that in local communities.
That doesn’t even include the return on investment of getting a college or graduate degree, which research also dollars support.
