These are human rights issues, not "issues impacting the transgender community". Threats to human rights impact everyone.

Republicans poll worse on the issue if they know a trans person? Damn.

It's because any proper Republican that has direct contact with a trans person has likely been cut out of their life for being bigots nobody wants anything to do with.
So there's personal contempt there.

A majority of Americans are also opposed to the Trump admin banning transgender service members, calling for teachers who support trans students to be prosecuted, and removing critical LGBTQ+ information from federal websites.

Americans are not in favor of censorship, but Trump and Republicans in Congress sure as hell are.
