Advocacy & Policy

Laws and policies affecting TGE and LGBTQ+ people are changing rapidly across the United States. These resources primarily address law and policy in the United States and can help readers track legislation, compare state policies, understanding current court cases, locate policy research, and connect with organizations working to protect TGE and LGBTQ+ communities.


Inclusion on this list does not indicate endorsement of every position, campaign, or publication associated with an organization. 


Follow the provided links to learn more about the U.S. Trans Genocide (2023–?) and the Trans Mis/Disinformation that fuels it.


For TGE and LGBTQ+ resources, please head to Trans/LGBTQ+ Support.


For community resources, please head to Educators, Families, & Professionals.


If you know of a resource on here that should be included, but isn't or spot a mistake, please send us a message on our Contact Us page.
