Incredible news out of Florida.
Florida's gender affirming care ban has been blocked in part. The decision is complex, but this should be enough to allow care to proceed soon.
This is the first (of many) wins against gender bans this year.
"Gender identity is real."

Happy first Sunday of Pride Month! To celebrate, today’s Scroll is all about the LGBTQIA+ sports community — the trailblazers who bravely paved the way and the progress made so far. That said, there’s still a lot of work to be done
