While the Trump administration attacks the rights of transgender people to safe and fair housing, we’re taking the fight to Congress—and you can help!
As the Trump administration escalates its attacks on trans people, Harper Jean Tobin—NCTE’s Director of Policy—testified before Congress about the critical importance of housing protections for transgender people. We addressed the widespread prejudice and bias faced by transgender people in housing, lending, and access to shelter programs.
We know that one in three transgender people has experienced homelessness in their lifetime and one in eight has experienced it in the last year. Despite this well-documented crisis, the Trump administration is preparing to allow shelters to discriminate against trans people while receiving taxpayer dollars.
Call your Representatives and tell them to vote for the Ensuring Equal Access to Shelter Act, which would prevent Trump from letting shelters turn away trans people with taxpayer dollars!
