Why are Republicans so obsessed with people like me? Trans adults were once children. I didn't have the language, but I remember praying that I would wake up different.

Stop lying about. Stop bullying our kids. Why are you so obsessed with trans kids while you're ignoring the Epstein victims?

I think it's crazy that some on the left see the right beginning to muse about ending the filibuster and thinking it's a good thing.

They would consolidate power in such a way that makes Dems coming back unfeasible.

Voter ID, mail in restrictions, end of same-day registration, voter roll purges.

1. My newest Anti-Trans Legal Risk Map is here.

Risk has increased sharply for youth in many states as clinics shutter under Trump and state AGs refuse to enforce civil rights laws.

For adults, some increases in risk.

Nationwide risk remains extreme.
