Action in defense of trans lives is an essential part of all movements for justice.

Join us this week and always.

The time for mass mobilization in defense of trans lives is now. Trans youth are under attack in states across the country. As efforts to criminalize trans bodies escalate, so must our resistance.

This year, Trans Week of Visibility + Action is fundraising with a goal of $50,000 for Gender Liberation Movement + Trans Youth Emergency Project.

Help us reach our goal and make a contribution.

Trans Week of Visibility + Action is a project of Gender Liberation Movement.

 

What’s going on?

 

From March 25 to March 31 we are launching a digital mobilization campaign to build power and support for trans young people and the organizers and communities fighting alongside them.

More than 500 anti-LGBTQ bills have been introduced across the country, the vast majority attacking trans youth. From threatening to criminalize health care to investigating families for affirming their children to banning trans youth from school activities, these bills represent a threat to trans survival.

Visibility alone won’t save us, take action!

 

SHARE + EDUCATE

Learn

There are over 500 bills pending in state legislatures across the United States that would ban health care for trans minors, ban trans women and girls from sports, ban trans people from restrooms, and ban schools and school staff from educating about history.

Why are
these bills dangerous?

These bills are just one part of a fascist global campaign to silence, erase, and harm trans, gender nonconforming, and nonbinary people.

They are not about protecting women or children, but about expanding state power and control and limiting bodily autonomy and self-determination.

Action in defense of trans lives is an essential part of all movements for justice.

Join us this week and always.

Act now

Opponents of trans justice and survival are fixated on us and we need our accomplices to mobilize with us. 

This week we’ll be diving deep on this national strategy against the trans community.

Contact your lawmakers

One critical action to take is to contact your state senator and representative and tell them to vote NO on any anti-LGBTQ bills pending in your state. 

Don’t know who your state reps are? That’s okay, most of us don’t. You can look them up based on your address here.

Confused about how government works? That is deliberate. Here is a primer on the branches of government.

It can be intimidating to contact your lawmaker if you never have before. We wrote some simple scripts you can use!

Contact your hospitals

Has your hospital preemptively complied with Trump’s unlawful Executive Orders? Call and/or email them demanding they don’t comply.

On March 4, a judge filed a preliminary injunction to Trump’s executive order threatening to pull federal funding to hospitals that provide gender-affirming care to young people 19 years old and younger. Hospitals and medical centers should continue to provide healthcare to trans young people.
