ok, cis folks—if you said you'd stand with trans folks, it's time. S.9 is the senate's sports ban bill—a big step to making trump’s executive order a federal law, which is much harder to undo. it can be stopped monday. short call scripts for dem & GOP senators ⬇️🧵 legiscan.com/US/bill/SB9/...

If you are a cis person please take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

Cis allies of trans people can certainly speak up louder right now. Trans rights are human rights. Donald Trump and the GOP are hot garbage and can get fucked. They will not win. Elevate trans voices, be there for your trans friends, use your cis privilege to help in any way that you can.

If you’re in the US and you’d like to know what projects and vital services federal grants currently fund in your state, you can search here: www.usaspending.gov And you can find the contact information for your elected representatives here: www.usa.gov/elected-offi... They need to hear from you.

Also want to say a bit about why things like removing accessibility page, ASL, and screen reading capabilities from the White House website matter. It feels performative, and it is. It's a coordinated effort to shift cultural norms.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

If you're relatively safe right now & want to do something constructive, leave a comment in favor. The subminimum wage is one of the (many) things that keeps people with disabilities poor. As with all federal comments, expertise (from experience, study, or both) helps but isn't required.
