Trans people know who we are. Hear us in our own words in this moment of crisis:
We won’t be erased.
“I encourage us to look at this in the context of years-long attempts to stigmatize and further marginalize trans people.”
Laverne Cox on HB 1570 in Arkansas, which would ban trans people from receiving gender affirming care that they need.
“It’s not about access to care. It’s not about competitiveness in sports.”
Sarah McBride on why we’re seeing so many different attempts to attack the trans community.
“Trans people have always been here and we will always be here. You cannot erase us. Please stop trying.”
Cash Ashley, testifying against HB 1570 in Arkansas, a bill that would ban trans children from receiving gender affirming care.
“I was outed multiple times by teachers and administrators… and told directly that my existence made people uncomfortable.”
No public school student has to go through what Fox did — but we have to be loud.
“This bill will cause the death of human beings, trans beings, children’s death.”
Wolfe Espinosa Villegas on why we must keep fighting to defeat HB 1570 in Arkansas and all other attacks on trans youth.
Trans lives are under attack. We must keep fighting back.
