A member of the Stanford trans community wrote this piece for the Transgender Day of Remembrance, but couldn’t publish it in the newspaper due to editorial restrictions.
Please consider reading it. It’s deeply moving and bittersweet. It is called “Trans girl heaven.”
Unless you’re trans, I think everyone can shelve the pronouns and gender reassignment jokes. None of y’all were here when we were mourning our dead, and most of you won’t even notice when a trans ban passes your state house.
BREAKING: From the Missouri Secretary of State’s website, the Emergency Rule by the Missouri Attorney General that banned gender-affirming care for all people in the state of Missouri has been terminated.
I’m getting word that the Attorney General decided to terminate this.
Live thread for Missouri's #SB14, a bill that would make it impossible for trans folk to change the gender marker on their birth certificates. #MOLeg#ProtectTransKids 🧵
Happening now, 8 anti-trans bills are being heard in Missouri. This is part of one of the days when the most anti-trans bills have been heard in a single day in history. I will be following along.
Many rights for trans people could begin the first step of falling today.

My mom sold our home & everything that doesn’t fit in our car because the state I was born in is not safe for trans kids. Anyways… happy Independence Day to everyone who gets to celebrate that 🇺🇸
I love all the people coming out to support bodily autonomy, but it is so obvious they weren't paying attention to the wave of anti-trans attacks. They're all the same fight, you can't cherry pick human rights
Great news! The Biden administration has officially proposed adding gender identity and sexuality to title IX protections.
This would confer a slew of legal protections to trans students in all public schools.
Now it goes to public comment for 60 days. It must go through!
This has GOT to stop.
A sitting congressman just spread a lie about the Texas shooter to pin it on transgender people spread by troll sites, in a state where they are spending more time banning trans kids than they are spending regulating guns.
This is absolutely SICK.

Child abuse investigations for the parents of transgender youth will continue in Texas after the TX Supreme Court blocked the injunction.
This is TERRIBLE. Teachers will be forced to report trans children to CPS. Parents could lose their trans kid and any other kids they have.
Amazing news tonight.
Anti trans bills in Missouri DEFEATED.
The Missouri Senate has adjourned a day early - It fails to pass a transgender sports ban and its insane "detransition all youth" bill where an age limit of 25 years old to get gender affirming care was discussed.
You all pushed for it, and they listened! 19 states will introduce trans safe state laws in coming weeks! These will protect trans families fleeing TX/AL/AR! In addition to NY, CA, and MN:

- CT
- FL
- GA
- IL
- KS
- KY
- ME
- MI
- NH
- NM
- OR
- RI
- VT
