Trump starts limiting healthcare for trans people
The White House Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) could announce new legislation that would revoke this protection in the coming days, The Hill reported on Tuesday (April 23).
The new rules are "likely to send an even stronger signal that the government supports discrimination in healthcare against transgender people," said Harper Jean Tobin, policy director at the National Center for Transgender Equality. She added, "It won't mean that transgender people can't get healthcare overnight, but it will be a slow process that allows more discrimination."
