Gov. Abbotβs direction will only spread fear and misinformation. A parent or guardian who is taking their child to a health care provider to offer gender-affirming care is providing love and support.
Gender-affirming care recognizes that every life is sacred and supports the well-being of trans youth. Implementing unsafe standards in communities is harmful to trans and non-binary youth and encourages prejudice and violence. Now is the time to express our solidarity with those experiencing the cruel impacts of the irresponsible action of Gov. Abbott. Trans, non-binary, and gender non-conforming children in Texas and beyond deserve better.
As Unitarian Universalists, let us come together in solidarity at this critical moment in unequivocal support for trans children. To our trans family: we uplift and support all the trans and non-binary people in our lives, our congregations, and communities. You are not alone. We hold trans children and their families--in Texas and in the world--in deep care.
