1. Anti-trans ballot initiatives are spreading across the United States.

In 2026, it appears that five states: Colorado, Washington, Arizona, Nebraska, and Missouri will send such referendums to voters.

Allied organizations are trying to fight back.

1. Horrifying ruling out of the 4th Circuit.

An all-Republican 4th Circuit panel has just ruled that states can compel trans adults to "appreciate their sex" by enacting care bans.

It even directly says that trans adult care bans are legal in the ruling.

Two anti-trans dems lost their primaries, including one that cast the deciding veto override vote, in blowouts.

1. My newest Anti-Trans Legal Risk Map is here.

For trans adults, Kansas is the newest "Do Not Travel" warning, only the 3rd state to achieve that warning.

For youth, a change to the map increases risk to Medium in many states.

Nationwide risk remains extreme.

With the arrests of journalists, ICE, FBI election office raids, threats to arrest Obama, charges on Comey and Powell and James, I can’t exactly what the threat level is.

Is this a competitive autocracy and Democracy is over, or is this a hapless blundering one making moves that never truly work?

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.
