Today's layoffs at The Washington Post are devastating. Cuts to one news organization are a cut to our whole industry. We stand in solidarity with you, @PostGuild

As the @nytimes assistant managing editor for standards and trust, I help edit a lot of pieces. This week I worked on two important stories about the experiences of transgender Americans. They talked to us about how they are coping with policy changes by the Trump administration.

The judge in the case challenging the Trump executive order to end gender-transition treatments for prisoners, and to house trans women inmates in men's prisons, has replaced his temporary restraining order with a preliminary injunction.

[Amy Harmon @amy_harmon]

There have been three executive orders on trans issues since Jan 20. I collected some reactions here. https://t.co/v6NyqLfCsI

“Idaho Lawmakers Want Supreme Court to Overturn Same-Sex Marriage Decision; A state legislative committee has advanced a resolution asking that the power to regulate marriage be returned to the states”: Amy Harmon of The New York Times has this report. https://t.co/VFLptxToZg

@JournalismSEEN Hi @JournalismSEEN, I'm one of the authors of the story. FWIW in that sentence, we were trying to distinguish between transgender women and cisgender women without using the word "cisgender," which many readers don't know.

@glennagoldis @JournalismSEEN @WomenAreReals Hi @glennagoldis, tnx for reading & feedback. re: the state leg story, it says "Republican lawmakers say they want to preserve privacy in bathrooms and locker rooms, and fairness for women in sports." Agree would've been good to give more space (to all sides) on minors/transition

In more than two dozen interviews with The New York Times, those who went to elite schools, where their race may or may not have given them an edge, expressed a swirl of emotions. @amy_harmon @nytimes

#AffirmativeAction affects only abt 2% of all Black, Hispanic or Native American students in 4-year colleges, but has an “outsize role in social, economic and political decisions that graduates from the most selective schools play.’’ @amy_harmon @nytimes
