Key Points: 
  • Some of the legislation denies gender-affirming care to youth – and criminalizes those health-care providers that attempt to do so.
  • Other bills block trans students from participating in sports and still others have banned books with trans content.
  • They all aim to make being trans harder in an already hostile society and they are being spearheaded by the far-right.
  • The enforcement of a gender binary likely has much to do with the preservation of white power.
