Horrible. That’s what the last two weeks have felt like for all of us. Since Day 1 of his administration, Donald Trump has made it abundantly clear that he will make outrageous—and possibly illegal—executive decisions that try to erase trans people. But we refuse to let that happen.
We just huddled with other LGBTQI+ organizations to write an in-depth response explaining the trans healthcare executive order. The work offers both a straightforward explainer and a deeper understanding of the order’s impacts and future risks. Last week, our legal, policy, and organizing teams laid out our battle plan for countering Trump’s extremism at our Trans Rights vs Trump webinar.
As Trump escalates his attacks, our legal and policy experts, organizers, comms leaders, and executive teams are working round the clock on resources, analysis, and legal actions — but we can’t stop there.
Every moment counts, there’s no time to waste protecting trans Americans. We’re sending Trump a message: We have been here before, we are here now, and we aren’t going anywhere. We will not be erased.
