1. The HHS Appropriations Bill is out and it contains several devastating anti-trans provision.
It would bar federal funding for trans youth and adult care nationwide, which could be used to bar hospitals from providing it at all.
Will Democrats stand firm, or cave to avoid a shutdown?

House HHS Appropriations Bill Would Devastate Trans Adult Healthcare Nationwide
The bill would bar federal funding for any "social, psychological, behavioral, or medical intervention" to treat gender dysphoria.

1. My newest Anti-Trans Legal Risk Map is here.
Risk has increased sharply for youth in many states as clinics shutter under Trump and state AGs refuse to enforce civil rights laws.
For adults, some increases in risk.
Nationwide risk remains extreme.

Federal Court Temporarily Blocks Book Bans and "Don't Say Gay" In Iowa
Iowa’s SF 496, which allowed unconstitutional book bans, outed trans students, and curbed the promotion of GSAs, has been drastically reigned in—at least for the time being.

Last night, we were one of the first outlets to report the ADULT ban on gender affirming care for Medicaid recipients who depend on it to access it.
This morning, that bill passed 215-214-1.
It now goes to the senate.
It's a bleak day for transgender Americans.

1. Terrifying news for transgender people across the United States. In a late night development, the House Spending Bill was amended to ban transgender coverage for transgender ADULTS on medicaid!
A manager's amendment removed the words "for minors."

In case y'all missed it - Utah Republicans ordered a study on transgender healthcare, expecting it to come back unsupportive.
Instead, it found that trans youth care was safe and effective, and that transgender youth need it.
Whoops.

Utah lawmakers’ own study found gender-affirming care benefits trans youth. Will they lift the treatment ban?

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

AP could have been cowardly and rolled over for Trump.
“We had to comply or we’d lose [funding/access/privileges]” like so many orgs are doing.
It would have been easy for them to say “gulf of America”
But it never stops there.
They got the memo. Good job AP.

BREAKING: Associated Press is suing the Trump administration for violating the First Amendment.
This is what needs done at every turn. Resist. Fight back.
