The new GOP-controlled Congress is prioritizing anti-trans legislation, pushing numerous bills aimed at restricting health care for trans Americans and reinforcing traditional gender roles.
Legislation being introduced overwhelmingly targets trans health care. Proposals include revoking federal funds for gender-affirming care, charging doctors who treat minors with felonies, and redefining sex to exclude trans individuals.
Blocking federal funds for gender-affirming care has become the favored anti-trans proposal, with significant Republican backing for various bills aiming to restrict access to these services.
With Trump taking office, there is a clear trajectory towards federal anti-trans laws, reflecting the administration's alignment with congressional Republicans on issues regarding gender and sexual identity.
