Dear John,

Our Protect Trans Health campaign has officially launched! We're
collecting comments in support of a new rule released by the
Biden-Harris administration that will help protect trans people from
discrimination at the doctor's office

.  

Tell the government how important it is to fight discrimination

. Share your story and spread the campaign far and wide!

Trans people of all ages have faced vicious recent attacks, and we
NEED to make sure that everyone can access safe and affirming medical
care. No one should have to face discrimination at the doctor's
office. Raising your voice can make a difference- and the
stories are already rolling in.

We're hearing from dozens of supportive parents who want their
kids to have the best possible care. And we've heard from trans
elders, including a trans woman in her 70s who finally got to be
herself at age 60 - but had to stop seeing a doctor she'd
known for decades because he refused to support her transition. 

Here's what to do: 

* Leave a comment on why you support the new rule.

* Share your comment on social media with #ProtectTransHealth
* Encourage others to do the same!

The new rule relates to Section 1557, which is the part of the
Affordable Care Act that prohibits discrimination in health care. The
law itself already exists - and discrimination is already illegal -
but the proposed rules help strengthen our protections and enforce the
law. Now, you can leave a comment which supports the new rule.
You'll find tips and ideas on sharing your story here, and you
can also share your comment on social media with #ProtectTransHealth.

Make it clear that healthcare discrimination is unacceptable.

No one should ever face discrimination - and that's
especially true when you're seeking health
care.   

Yours in solidarity,
