9. This will not become law unless a version of this makes its way to the Senate bill, AND 7 Democrats cave over shutdown fights. Still, it is important that they hear from you now that this is a non-starter. Find your rep and senators here:

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.

I appreciate this piece in The Bulwark greatly. It makes the serious, moderate, cis-friendly case that trans rights are not a distraction or a trifle to be easily dispensed with.

We All Lose in Trump’s War Against Trans Americans
His cynical executive orders targeting trans people will harm important American institutions by taking away talent, energy, and the plain competence our country needs.

This is a nightmare scenario for trans people. If language like this gets into an HHS funding bill that becomes law, pretty much every hospital and doctor's office that treats trans people of any age would stop doing so.
This is the most extreme anti-trans push yet.
This is the most extreme anti-trans push yet.
![For the last few years, the GOP has coalesced around an idea that would short-circuit essentially all trans health care in America: banning federal funds from going to businesses that provide health care specific to changing one's sex or gender identity, including hormones and surgeries. It would essentially signal to the private sector that if it wants federal dollars, it needs to stay away from sex-or gender-affirming care, and bow down to right-wing pundits who aim to, in their own words,
"eradicate" and "erase" this form of
health care.
Language in House Republicans' most recent funding bill for the Health and Human Services Department would do just that - ban money from any federal program to entities that do "social transitioning" or drugs and surgery for "gender dysphoria." Gender dysphoria is the specific diagnosis doctors use to justify those medical interventions. This legislation has not gotten a vote yet and would need to be reintroduced next Congress to be considered. But it has been a top priority for Republican lawmakers in the House, and Trump himself has promised he'd ask Congress "to permanently stop federal taxpayer dollars from being used to promote or pay for these [trans] procedures." (You can hear all his promises on trans health care in this short campaign video.)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hf7ezrajxadu7v3tzcyij424/bafkreid3evqccjqsjbwtdleb4kkevl4nepvc3h7wornyv37q5po7swxsei@jpeg)
