"Phantom View" is about a son caretaking for his father, and discovering a blurry person in all their family photos that he has no memory of. The same figure is in all his dad's paintings--and the figure may be in the house with them right now.

![Hi, my name is [say your name] and I'm one of Senator [say your senator's name]'s constituents. House Republicans are trying to insert a full transgender healthcare funding ban into the F-Y '26 budget bill. I'm calling to tell the Senator to stand up for trans Americans and vote NO on any bill with that language.
[you can stop here at 0:15 if you want to bail out—but it's better if you don't]
This care funding ban follows the map the G-O-P charted while attacking abortion. Democrats lost that fight by giving in to the G-O-P an inch at a time. Now, hundreds of millions of people have lost the right to control their own bodies. Giving an inch at a time on trans care will devastate trans Americans and it'll get Democrats nothing in return but contempt.
[you can stop here at 0:35 if you want to bail out—but it's better if you don't]
Right now, the most popular Democrat in the U-S, [Zo-RAHN Mom-DA-nee], is campaigning on making trans healthcare cheaper and easier to access, and he's only got more good will because of it.
[you can stop here at 0:47 if you want to bail out—but it's better if you don't]
I'm asking the Senator to stand with trans people now. Refuse to allow any anti- trans funding ban—healthcare OR sports—to pass into the F-Y '26 bill and do not vote for any bill with that language just to avoid a shutdown. Standing with trans people is the right thing to do and it's politically smart. Voters and donors show up for Democrats who fight.
*** No need to read, but if anyone asks: The relevant House Appropriations Bill sections are 243-246 (healthcare funding ban) and 311-312 (sports funding ban).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2lzahebnas6od6j6jfydwst7/bafkreic2ia5xovou7yfibac4y7t4xhyifm56dcauo5svy7gjs7xgseseyq@jpeg)
