Shame on NYU Langone for ending gender-affirming care & kicking trans New Yorkers to the curb. It's a violation of their promise to treat all people equally, kindly, and respectfully — and a violation of NYC's human rights law as well. Bending the knee is bad; denying people care is even worse.

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre.

She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s.

Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

The latest review from JAMA Pediatrics has uncovered that 26% of trans youth have attempted suicide. That's actual attempts, ideation was even higher.

The trend was most pronounced in North America, where anti-trans laws have been common.

The latest from our writer S. Baum.

The highest attempt rates came out of North America amidst the United States’ war on trans kids.

Time for Mayor Mamdani to live up to his campaign promises and ensure care is kept safe for New York trans kids.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social @mayor.nyc.gov
In a blatant violation of NY state and NYC law, NYU Langone has shut down its youth gender clinic and caused a potential forced detransition to its patients. Where is the NY AG and Mayor Mamdani?

Wilkinsburg community members, organized with Frontline Dignity and other orgs, showed up at local schools with the quickness this afternoon after rumors of ICE raids. Leaders say they're planning more efforts around schools + bus stops and will host a public meeting on preparedness soon.

Just in: 50 parents and transgender activists have blockaded the HHS Building in protest of sweeping new rules that could ban trans youth nationwide.

24 were then arrested.

This is the kind of action we need.

Using someone's correct pronouns is a matter of basic respect.

The media, including reporters and broadcasters, should set the proper example when talking about trans people.

Whoa—somehow feeling both called out and totally validated.
Just a reminder that nothing matters and there are no rules anymore. You can literally just watch a Muppet Christmas Carol and eat mashed potatoes in your pajamas whenever you want. Be free.
