These Are The States Attempting to Pass Anti-Trans Health Care Bills – Human Rights Campaign

Now, theyre targeting our communitys health care.

This legislative session, states across the country are trying to prevent transgender youth from receiving gender-affirming healthcare.

Right now, theres at least 15 bills targeting the trans community and our ability to seek medical care. Heres a running list of some of the bills were tracking, and what you can do to help:

ALABAMA

This anti-trans medical bill in Alabama (HB 1/SB 10) is called Vulnerable Child Compassion and Protection Act. Despite its name, this bill has nothing to do with compassion or protection - and seeks to harm trans youth, not protect them. This bill would impose criminal penalties on medical professionals and parents who provide best practice gender-affirming care to trans youth.

This is an appalling overreach. Alabaman legislators are trying to tell parents how to care for their trans kids -- and theyre dead wrong.

Fight back now. If you live in Alabama, you can help us.
