Bigoted words give rise to bigoted policies. Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson has been making cruel, transphobic slurs at the same time his agency is revoking critical housing protections for the transgender community.

That includes taking away protections from transgender people who are experiencing homelessness.

In response, Ayanna sent a letter directly to Secretary Ben Carson denouncing his latest attack on transgender Americans. Will you add your name to Ayanna’s letter right now to demand that Ben Carson withdraw his hateful policies? If we all raise our voices, we can make Carson hear us.

Add Your Name

The current occupant of the White House and Secretary Carson are using HUD to advance their agenda of cruelty and discrimination. Their latest move will only worsen the systemic inequities that force far too many people in the transgender community into homelessness -- putting them at increased risk of violence.

Secretary Carson must immediately abandon this hateful policy and end his department’s relentless attacks on the health, safety, and well-being of transgender Americans.

Ayanna will always stand with the transgender community in the face of discriminatory attacks from the Trump administration. Add your name to Ayanna’s letter to Ben Carson and demand that he cancel this draconian and hateful policy.

Thank you for your activism,
