Take Action

Tell your Senator to OPPOSE criminalizing gender-affirming medical care.

Subject: Vote NO on Any Federal Ban on Gender-Affirming Care

Message:

I am writing as a constituent to urge you to oppose legislation passed by the U.S. House that would criminalize gender-affirming medical care for transgender youth. As this bill now comes before the Senate, I ask you to reject it and prevent it from becoming law. This legislation would cause serious harm to transgender young people and their families, undermine medical expertise, and place politicians between patients and their doctors. Criminalizing healthcare is an extreme and dangerous approach that has no place in our democracy. Gender-affirming care is a broad, evidence-based approach to healthcare that helps people live safely and comfortably in their bodies. It includes mental health support, counseling, and — in some cases — carefully prescribed, age-appropriate medical care. This care is supported by every major medical association in the United States and is widely recognized as medically necessary. For adolescents, gender-affirming care may include puberty-delaying medication, a safe and temporary option that gives young people time to understand who they are with the support of their families and healthcare providers. This bill seeks to take away those choices and instead threatens doctors with severe penalties for providing appropriate care. We know that legislation targeting transgender youth has real consequences. Research consistently shows that anti-transgender laws increase stigma and negatively impact the mental health and well-being of transgender and nonbinary young people. Healthcare decisions should be made by families and qualified medical professionals — not by politicians using ideology to override science. I urge you to oppose this harmful bill and to stand for fairness, freedom, and the dignity of all young people.
