Drown out the hate and show trans youth they're loved. Pledge now.

ACLU Supporter –

Make no mistake: The all-out push by lawmakers to attack transgender people and their rights is a nationwide crisis.

While these attacks escalate, the young people who are the targets are holding and facing the most. Trans youth right now are experiencing adults leveraging their positions of power to threaten their family, health, safety, and life.

In Texas, trans youth, their parents, and caretakers have had to face the terror of being subjected to unwarranted "child abuse" investigations simply for receiving medically necessary care to affirm their gender. While families in Texas are navigating this nightmare, these deadly efforts are also escalating across the country. Over 100 anti-trans bills were introduced in legislatures in 2021, and we're well over that record this year.

As a trans adult and a parent myself, it's agonizing to know what trans children are facing right now. We at the ACLU are fighting relentlessly in the courts and statehouses to defend these young people – but they need a loud showing of public support, too. That's where you can help.

In response to the over 100 anti-trans bills introduced across the country, the ACLU is working to rally 100,000 people in support of trans youth and we need your voice. If you are a parent, a guardian, or an adult who cares – take the ACLU's pledge in support of trans youth and share it widely to help reach our goal.

Take the Pledge
<[link removed]>

ACLU Supporter, we know when trans youth don't have access to support – including gender-affirming medical care – their mental health suffers. Given how terrifying and challenging this crisis is for them right now, a large showing of support from as many of us as possible will make a difference.

We can drown out the vitriol coming from anti-trans politicians, make sure young people know they're not alone in this fight, and make it clear to everyone that trans people belong.

So please join our pledge today and be one of 100,000 people strong for trans youth everywhere.
