National Center for Transgender Equality Action Fund

John,

A couple of days ago, I emailed you about taking action against the
gutting of Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). If you
didn't see it, you have still no doubt heard by now that the Trump
administration is once again attacking the most vulnerable within our
community to be stripped of our protections in health care - and
during a global pandemic no less. Their cruelty really knows no
bounds.

Trump's administration enacted a rule change on Friday that
removes explicit protections for transgender people in health care by
excluding protections from discrimination based on gender identity. We
won't stop fighting against the inhumanity of this
Administration. Not during the coronavirus pandemic, not ever.
Can you chip in at least $15.57/month to help us #ProtectTransHealth?

Allowing insurance companies carte blanche to discriminate against
transgender people will only end up putting more lives at
risk. This rule sends the message that discrimination in health
care is acceptable, even when it means patients will needlessly
suffer.

Access to health care is a human right. The battle against the
coronavirus has demonstrated with devastating clarity that the health
of every person in this country is interconnected. We must be united
to ensure each of us can live and thrive no matter who we
are. Please join us by making a monthly gift starting today.

We cannot win this battle without you.

Sincerely,

Mara Keisling
Executive Director
