If your representative is dodging in-person town halls, call them out! Tag them and demand they face their constituents.

In December, during oral arguments in Skrmetti, Justice Coney Barrett opined, "we don't have a history of de jure discrimination against transgender people." I was flabbergasted. So I chronicled some of the most egregious examples for @law360.bsky.social static1.squarespace.com/static/6160c... .

Every time I fly, I always pick a window seat. I stare out of it and watch the world go by. We live in such a beautiful world. It’s big enough for all of us.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

This is why it is so important that our scientific societies speak out against factual inaccuracies like in the sex EO.

DOJ/DOD/Trump are facing a judge in Reyes who is not going to suffer fools or put up with bullshit. And she has made clear she will be considering whether anti-trans animus motivated the military EO—a finding that both would be correct and could have spillover effects across the many anti-trans EOs.

My hope is for us to all live long enough to be around to see a generation of trans youth who won't believe our stories about how bad things were back in the day.
