Here is a thing you can do to support trans people today. Find your reps' info at reps.fyi or 5calls.org.
🚨 In addition to banning gender affirming medical treatment through Medicaid, Trump's reconciliation bill PROHIBITS health insurance purchased through Obamacare exchanges from offering transition care.
Detransition care, though, is specifically protected. CALL YOUR HOUSE REPS!
