March 4th Protest For Transgender Rights. Here's the Deets.

Protests are happening in 50 states and DC on March 4th, 2025. Find yours at r/50501. All of the protests have a common theme, to save democracy. I challenge the transgender community to show up, wave our flag, grab a mic, or do whatever you feel, and make it known Trans Rights Are Human Rights!

People from Robert De Niro to EMINEM have grabed the mic to say one thing.

I live in (insert name of bluest of blue state) why should I take time off from work to protest?

• There have been anti trans bills filed in all but one state. So, no Veronica, your state doesn't have a magical protective bubble surrounding it.
• Protests as massive as this have historically petered out. We are only human.
• Trump is just itching to declare a national emergency, call out the military on American civilians, and he will if the protesters get violent.
•  We can view every protest as our last chance to raise our voices.

So far this year, there have been 656 anti trans bills introduced in 49 states of which 13 have passed, 621 are still active, and 22 have failed. And on top of that 12 anti trans bills have been filed on the federal level and Felon47's 10 executive orders targeting transgender lives on every level.

Texas Legislator sponsors bill to criminalize all age transgender healthcare

Texas Representative Brent Money [R] introduced HB 3399 February 26, 2025, prohibiting adults from receiving gender affirming care. Money, a first-year lawmaker's campaign was funded by a PAC with connections to white supremacist Nicholas Fuentes.

HB 3399 is identical to the law banning minor trans affirming health care with the exception that Child has been crossed out, making it an all age healthcare ban.

The bill would also prohibit gender nonconforming people from using online resources to acquire medication and from traveling out of state for gender affirming surgeries.

Activist Debi Jackson noted that it targets both hormones and surgery. Individuals who have already started hormones and have done the twelve required mental health sessions will still be forced to "wean" themselves off the medication. It's not just a cut to state insurance funding for these procedures, it makes them completely illegal.

This line —> Provide, prescribe, administer, or dispense…” is scary. It is currentmy defined as an act by a “healthcare provider”, but because folks in the UK used that as a way to get telehealth services that allowed them to travel to get medications, they redefined it to include anyone — doctors, pharmacists, NPs, parents. Anyone who picks up a medication, delivers it, injects it, hands a person a patch or pill. This is how they criminalize traveling for care and coming back with prescriptions. This is something to watch closely for changes as the bill moves.

There is an accompanying bill filed in the Senate. If the facists are sucessfull in passing these bills it will go into affect September 1, 2025.
