The GOP bill is horrible shit garbage and is a crime against humanity. No doubting that. Also welcome to being trans.

What we *should* be doing is following the lead of trans healthcare activists on how to fix this, because they have decades of experience.

Good call. The blanket trans exclusions still are a unique brand of horror but there's a lot of overlap in messaging between the groups.
