Too often when discussing trans rights, we’re forced to be on the defensive, as Republicans wage attacks.
Today, we take the opportunity to look forward by introducing my Trans Bill of Rights, a comprehensive vision to provide protections for all trans and nonbinary people.

The Trump administration is going directly after LGBTQ healthcare providers and targeting them with threats of losing access to Medicaid/Medicare payments.
This is government by tweet, where every day, HHS targets more and more GAC providers with threats of investigation and withholding of funding.

A strange and confusing tale from the bowels of (where else) the New York Times.
Has the American Medical Association changed position on trans youth care? A New York Times headline says they "endorsed restrictions" on youth surgeries. Other outlets, including NPR, report they did no such thing.

That's not really true though. If you're feeling sensitive about the public perception of your trans coverage, perhaps you should hire a trans reporter to cover it more accurately than your current reporters are capable of.

There is no home health care industry without immigrants. Objectively
The home healthcare workforce is disproportionately comprised of immigrants, and it's certainly not because they take jobs US-born folks want. As a result, "a 25% increase in the steady state flow of immigrants to the US would result in 5,000 fewer deaths nationwide."

Uganda's strict abortion law leads to high maternal mortality due to unsafe abortion - which is almost entirely preventable if abortion was decriminalized and made available free and on request. Yet advocates continue to call for more contraceptive use and education, and rarely for legal reform.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS
Gender Affirming Care
Note: The information on this web page is for informational purposes only and is not legal advice. The California Attorney General does not represent individuals in legal matters. You may consider consulting an attorney to better understand your rights.
California Anti-Discrimination Laws
California Civil Code section 1798.301 provides that "gender-affirming healthcare services, and gender-affirming mental healthcare services are rights secured by the Constitution and laws of California." The Legislature further provided that "[i]nterference with these rights... is against the public policy of California." (Ibid.)
California law prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity, gender expression, and transgender status, in healthcare services and coverage. Healthcare providers and insurers covered by California law cannot discriminate against a patient for being any of the following: transgender, a person diagnosed with gender dysphoria, nonbinary, gender nonconforming, or intersex.¹
The Right to Medical Treatment
Under California law, gender-affirming care is defined as "medically necessary healthcare that respects the gender identity of the patient, as experienced and defined by the patient." In California, you have the right to receive medically necessary gender-affirming care or any other medically necessary healthcare without discrimination regardless of your sex, gender identity, gender expression, transgender status, diagnosis of gender dysphoria, or intersex status.³
For all healthcare, you have the right to receive:
