Breaking: The Trevor Project received a stop-work order last night on its contract with the national 988 suicide prevention hotline. The Trump administration is eliminating the option for LGBTQ callers to the hotline to press 3 and connect with someone who specializes in LGBTQ mental health.

This is beyond appalling. Tribal colleges and universities are already massively underfunded. Proposed cuts would be illegal and a clear violation of federal trust responsibility.
