John,
It’s a pivotal time for the trans community. We’ve already seen hundreds of anti-LGBTQ bills introduced in state legislatures across the country—most attacking the livelihood of trans folks. And we’re asking you to take a minute to donate $20 to support the National Center for Transgender Equality to stop them in their tracks.
Though there are fewer attacks this year, more are making their way to implementation. In just one week, Utah passed a bill banning trans people from using bathrooms that matches who they are and officials in Florida revoked trans peoples’ ability to update gender markers on driver’s licenses and ID cards.
Anti-trans lawmakers are working to restrict trans rights at every turn, but NCTE is there to fight each and every battle. Though we have not and will not win them all, we will keep fighting. Each and every one. Because even though not every one of these bills will become law, they all cause harm to trans people. Each and every one.
Today we’re asking you to support us in honor of the last Give Out Day and our 20 years of fighting for trans rights. It’s the perfect opportunity to show your solidarity with the trans community. Please take a minute to donate $20 or more to the National Center for Transgender Equality today.
Your gift will ensure we keep fighting for trans people now and for years to come. Trans people have always been here. We’ll always be here, no matter how hard our opposition tries to change that. In the face of threats to our rights and safety, we will protect each other.
We truly appreciate your support.
