BREAKING: The Trump administration just announced its plan to deny transgender people experiencing homelessness equal access to shelters. #SheltersSaveLives #WontBeErased reginfo.gov/public/do/eAge… The proposal centers on the Equal Access Rule, which ensures shelters & programs don't discriminate against LGBTQ people. HUD Secretary Ben Carson plans to weaken those protections for transgender people seeking access to HUD programs. #SheltersSaveLives #WontBeErased

THREAD: Earlier today, the @nytimes published this story, about efforts within the Trump Administration to eliminate the rights of transgender people - a heartless attack on our rights. nytimes.com/2018/10/21/us/… This proposal is an attempt to put restraints on the lives of 2 million people, effectively abandoning our right to equal access to health care, to housing, to education, or to fair treatment under the law.

THREAD: Tonight, we were made aware of a potentially distressing change to the State Department’s travel website, relating to gender marker changes on passports. (h/t @MOOMANiBE) In essence, the Department of State has altered how it explains the policy to the public, emphasizing longstanding restrictions in the current policy and deemphasizing trans people’s rights.
