No one has ever gotten into transgender health care for money. Doctors go into gender-affirming care because every day they save lives with simple, safe care. Every rally I went to I heard from medical providers who said there was nowhere else in medicine they could transform lives in this way.

Gender-affirming care for youth is just simple medical care. It isn’t political, it’s not radical. It is small-c conservative care that is what is recommended by doctors to protect the health and lives of kids and teenagers. Please protect trans kids.

Any food which has gotten to poor families the states must send agents to reclaim the food before it is eaten or face new federal penalties
“.. The Agriculture Department issued the command in a late-night Saturday memo .. That guidance threatened to impose financial penalties on states that did not “comply” quickly with the government’s new orders.”

A wrenching story about the people who don't know when they will eat next because Trump and Republicans are holding food assistance hostage. They need to distribute SNAP benefits immediately, and return to D.C. to work with us on a deal to reopen the government. www.texastribune.org/2025/11/05/t...
Texans are still waiting for November SNAP benefits
Although the federal government has said it will deposit half of November benefits, Texans are still unsure when money will land in their accounts.
