The freedom to live without fear of discrimination is a core American value, but anti-equality lawmakers in Iowa are trying to undermine that freedom by fast-tracking a bill that would remove civil rights protections for trans and queer Iowans.
Iowans are showing up for our community.

It's been 2 years since we asked the @nytimes.com to improve their trans coverage, meet with trans community leaders, and hire trans journalists. Why won't they meet with trans leaders?

And it looks like it’s official. Trump is ignoring court orders.

The rubicon has been crossed.

Ken Klipperstein leaked full passport guidance for trans people:

- X markers will be a focal point
- Existing unexpired passports will remain good
- No guidance on confiscation, but it doesn’t seem like they will
- Renewals less clear but it looks like they will use “a preponderance of evidence”

For those thinking the NYT grew a spine, hold tight… even in this piece they equivocate on sports and trans youth care.

The sickening way McBride is treated in congress never ends.

At some point, you have to just stop taking it. I don't know where that point is for McBride, I know where it was for my own wife, you have to hit back.

At least in this case, a fellow Dem did afterwards and said "Mr. Speaker" in return.
Rep. Mary Miller introduces Rep. Sarah McBride as “The Gentleman from Delaware, Mr. McBride.”

Performative cruelty.

An unelected billionaire has hijacked the U.S. Treasury payments system. These payment systems include highly confidential personal information of Social Security and Medicare recipients, taxpayers, nonprofits, businesses, and federal contractors.

"First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, . . .

Then they came for the Jews, . . .

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me." Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984)
