John, let's be clear about one thing:

Trans rights are human rights. As a doctor, I'm disgusted by the notion that we would ever deny care to a human being because of their gender identity -- but the Trump administration took actions yesterday which make that horrific kind of discrimination possible.

The administration's new federal rule means that transgender Americans no longer have protection from discrimination when going to a hospital or trying to purchase health insurance.

This vile policy reveals so much about the White House's priorities: putting an already vulnerable population at further risk of losing access to healthcare, and rolling back LGBTQ+ rights. That they did this in the middle of Pride Month makes it even crueler.

As a healthcare professional, as a mother, and as a fellow human being, I am calling on David Schweikert to speak out and denounce the administration's disgusting attack on transgender Americans. It's time he showed some leadership and made clear to the Trump administration that Americans won’t tolerate such hateful laws.

Will you help us get 15,000 signatures to keep the pressure on Schweikert? Please sign our petition >>

This is a moment to demand better of all our public officials. If David Schweikert remains silent, that will speak volumes.

In solidarity,
