John,

At a time when Republican extremists are actively working against LGBTQ rights at all levels, it’s never been more important for DFA members to stand up and fight back.

Throughout 2022, Republican extremists have ramped up their attacks on the very existence and identity of transgender Americans, and it’s up to us to stop them.

In fact, in 2022 alone over 160 anti-trans bills have been introduced, and 21 of them have fully been passed into law.

Their campaign of hate hurts trans youth the most, with 52% of youth who identify as transgender contemplating suicide in the last year alone.

It’s clear that Republicans’ transphobic attacks will continue having major consequences-- if we don't fight back. Join us in demanding that Congress pass the Trans Bill of Rights!

Protecting the rights of our transgender friends, neighbors and loved ones is an important part of challenging Republican power.

If passed, The Trans Bill of Rights would protect trans Americans’ access to healthcare, employment, and housing. Among other crucial protections the bill would:

• Add gender identity and sex characteristics to the Civil Rights Act protections against discrimination
• Prohibit employment, housing, and credit discrimination against trans people and their families
• Expand access to gender-affirming medical care, codify the right to abortion and contraception, and ban forced surgery on intersex children.

Fighting hate can’t wait: Tell Congress Pass the Transgender Bill of Rights Now!

Thank you for all you do.
