Strong message from @newyorkstateag.bsky.social directly to transgender youth and their families. Allies across the country are doing all they can to stand with trans youth, and our community will survive these outrageous attacks from the Trump administration.

I was a kid once. And my biggest regret in life is that I never got a childhood without pain.

Politicians should never insert themselves into the personal health care decisions of patients, parents, and their providers—and that includes trans Americans.

Trump mentions “transgender for everybody” all the time, but nobody in the White House press corps has asked about what he means.

I asked and got a wild response.

Lawmakers must listen to patients, families, and health care providers:

“Bills like this are dangerous [...] They say that it’s to protect children, but they’re trying to prevent people from getting health care that actually lowers the rate of suicide for trans youth and trans people in general.”
Health workers decry hasty House bills to ban gender-affirming care for children: ‘They hurt people’
Two bills mark the first time Congress has voted over national care bans and an escalation of anti-trans rhetoric

We're devastated about the tragic deaths of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. Rob's contributions to cinema, television and pop culture were legendary. Rob and Michele were fierce advocates for LGBTQ equality and acceptance, notably being in the fight against Proposition 8 in California.

"Trans youth joy is possibility. It’s being able to imagine the future – not as an abstract idea, but as something real and reachable. But joy isn’t just an emotion for us. It’s resistance. It’s survival. It’s a declaration that we are not going anywhere.”
