This is a nightmare scenario for trans people. If language like this gets into an HHS funding bill that becomes law, pretty much every hospital and doctor's office that treats trans people of any age would stop doing so.
This is the most extreme anti-trans push yet.
This is the most extreme anti-trans push yet.
![For the last few years, the GOP has coalesced around an idea that would short-circuit essentially all trans health care in America: banning federal funds from going to businesses that provide health care specific to changing one's sex or gender identity, including hormones and surgeries. It would essentially signal to the private sector that if it wants federal dollars, it needs to stay away from sex-or gender-affirming care, and bow down to right-wing pundits who aim to, in their own words,
"eradicate" and "erase" this form of
health care.
Language in House Republicans' most recent funding bill for the Health and Human Services Department would do just that - ban money from any federal program to entities that do "social transitioning" or drugs and surgery for "gender dysphoria." Gender dysphoria is the specific diagnosis doctors use to justify those medical interventions. This legislation has not gotten a vote yet and would need to be reintroduced next Congress to be considered. But it has been a top priority for Republican lawmakers in the House, and Trump himself has promised he'd ask Congress "to permanently stop federal taxpayer dollars from being used to promote or pay for these [trans] procedures." (You can hear all his promises on trans health care in this short campaign video.)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hf7ezrajxadu7v3tzcyij424/bafkreid3evqccjqsjbwtdleb4kkevl4nepvc3h7wornyv37q5po7swxsei@jpeg)

Once again reminding everyone that "it's rude to celebrate people's death" is for like, your highschool bully and your best friend who was mean to you so now you're not friends anymore. Not people in power like perhaps the CEOs of health insurance companies responsible for bankrupting millions

Constantly thinking very heavily about how everyone desperately needs community and how we need to be more organized financially and socially as communities to take on the challenges to come in the next 4 years and how we're not even close to being halfway prepared to take on the challenge

If this is actually how it works then it's a massive oversight especially with the lists you can mass follow. What if I'm following a lib and they block a cool and sexy communist? I don't even get to know which person that I follow blocked them or even who the blocked person is.
When you block someone on Bluesky, they are blocked to all of your followers too.
