Please Oppose S0531

Your help is urgently needed to fight anti-trans legislation in South Carolina!

State lawmakers are again attempting to pass a law that would allow schools to discriminate against transgender students and athletes. Legislation in South Carolina, S0531, would enact the “Save Women’s Sports Act” which would cause public and private middle school and high school sports teams to be designated based on students’ assigned sex at birth.

A Dangerous and Inaccurate Anti-Trans Bill in Ohio

Your help is urgently needed to protect essential healthcare for trans and gender-nonconforming youth in Ohio! State legislators are currently deliberating on a bill banning gender-affirming care to people 18 years old or younger in Ohio, going so far as to call it “experimentation.”

Trans Students Deserve the Same Athletic Opportunities as Other Students - Take Action Now

Your help is urgently needed to protect the rights of transgender young people in Pennsylvania! State legislators have introduced S.B. 1191, a bill that would expressly designate sport activities in all public schools to be male, female or coed. This bill is not about protecting young people - it it weaponizing an attack against trans children and youth for political points.

The Trevor Project reports that 85% of transgender youth say that recent debates around anti-trans bills have negatively impacted their mental health, and 52% of trans youth have serious considered suicide in the past year — with 20% making a suicide attempt in the past year. According to a poll by the Public Religion Research Institute poll published this year, 80% of Pennsylvanians support LGBT nondiscrimination protections.

Take a second today to stop the cruel attacks on transgender youth!

Let Trans Youth Play Sports - Stop S.B. 1046!

Your help is urgently needed to protect the rights of transgender young people in Arizona! State legislators have introduced S.B. 1046, a bill that would expressly designate sport activities in all public schools to be male, female or coed. This bill is not about protecting young people - it it weaponizing an attack against trans children and youth for political points. Transgender kids want to play sports for the same reasons all athletes do: to make friends, to build confidence and leadership skills, to be physically active, and to be a part of a team. Trans youth are as equally deserving of these opportunities as their cisgender peers. They do not deserve to be routinely and pointlessly scapegoated by adult politicians during election season.

Send a message to the Governor of Arizona asking him to stop this cruel bill today!
