Media coverage of transgender and gender diverse people has an impact. Today, we signed a letter with @glaad and over 100 other orgs to demand better, more accurate coverage.
We’ve had enough. We’ve joined over 100 organizations and leaders to demand that @nytimes stop printing inaccurate and harmful misinformation about transgender people and issues. Today we are outside of the Times building to send a clear message. https://t.co/IkQocpsG5q

Across the US, legislators are introducing bills that would restrict or ban access to gender-affirming care. Some bills, like SB12 in Kansas, would criminalize care for people under 21. WPATH's Dr. Safer from @MountSinaiNYC chimes in below. https://t.co/neoH3DLu7X

Kansas SB12 would make it a felony to provide gender-affirming care to teens and adults under the age of 21. Critics say it would harm transgender youth.
