The White House is preparing to fight back against the wave of anti-trans bills sweeping the US, the majority of which target young trans people.
Despite president Joe Biden issuing an executive order to ensure young trans people equal access to school facilities and sports programmes, over 30 states are currently considering regulations to prohibit trans youth from participating in school sports and/or receiving gender-affirming healthcare.Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee and West Virginia have already passed bills against trans inclusion in sports this year, with Arkansas also banning healthcare professionals from providing gender-affirming care for trans youth.
