A black-and-white photo of soldiers from World War II. The caption reads: 420 thousand of us died stopping a man who spoke like Trump. You betray everything we stood for by continuing to support this nightmare.

🚨 Trump & Musk’s budget plan: Slash education, food aid & healthcare—while handing the rich a $4.5T tax cut. Kids, the poor, even military families will pay the price. 🙃

We should not be targeted or spied on — in college or anywhere else — for making our voices heard.

We've created a tracker that covers all executive orders affecting LGBTQ folks along with federal and state legislation.

We're at 334 anti-LGBTQ bills.

A screenshot of a multi‐column table listing several U.S. presidential Executive Orders relating to LGBTQ+ rights and antidiscrimination policies. Each row has columns for “Origin” (POTUS), “Number/Identifier” (e.g., EO 13988), “Title” (such as Preventing and Combating Discrimination…), “Action Type” (e.g., Broad Nondiscrimination, Military Nondiscrimination), “Summary” (key points of each order), and “Date Signed.” The listed orders span from early 2021 through early 2025, covering topics like preventing discrimination based on gender identity or sexual orientation, banning conversion therapy, rescinding prior harmful EOs, and restricting or expanding DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) initiatives. A spreadsheet at the top shows columns tracking anti‐LGBTQ bills by status and year: total bills (334), 2025 bills (327), 2024 rollovers (7), how many passed committees (3), passed one chamber (5), passed both chambers (0), enacted (1), vetoed (0), failed (3), and carried forward (0). Below that, another header row lists different types of anti‐LGBTQ legislation (e.g., gender‐affirming care bans, pronoun bans, “Don’t Say Gay,” drag bans, bathroom bans) with the total count of each category (e.g., 55 for gender‐affirming care bans, 20 for pronoun bans, 14 for “Don’t Say Gay,” etc.). A color‐coded U.S. map spans the lower half, with states shaded from light orange to deep red according to how many anti‐LGBTQ bills they contain. Texas appears in the darkest red (46 bills), with lighter shades indicating fewer bills in other states. A note at the bottom right explains that the map shows total tracked bills per state, which does not necessarily reflect each bill’s likelihood of passage.

One reason to go on: Millions of girls in our country are now becoming terrified of puberty. It’s not a childish fear, it’s accurate—a result of our failure to protect them from a patriarchy that refuses to view them whole beings, beyond their biology, and that legislates accordingly.
Get motivated!

Never forget that first and foremost, Trump is a criminal enterprise that uses fake culture war outrage and bogus religiosity as a smoke screen as they raid the public coffers, run scams, and privatize/auction our infrastructure to their corporate buddies.
