hello again (bill clinton limewire voice) my fellow americans
There are a few states that actually have Shield/Refuge laws designed to help trans people fleeing from trans-unsafe states, which also guarantee trans folks access to healthcare. These states are:
- California
- Colorado
- Illinois
- Oregon
- Vermont
- Washington
- Minnesota
- New Mexico
- Maine
- Massachusetts
- Rhode Island
- Connecticut
- Washington D.C.
Additionally, some states have "trans sanctuary" executive orders signifying safety for trans folks seeking healthcare. These states are:
- Maryland
- New Jersey
- New York
Living as a resident in these states means you are protected by state's rights and state government to continue or begin receiving trans healthcare. These laws have been codified in their states so everything has been a-ok'd by their state governments.
Stay alive. You got this. I love you.
#my wife works somewhere helping provide trans healthcare in Maryland#and the organization has someone who had a hand in making MD a trans sanctuary state#and right now they're gearing up for the influx of out of state patients they'll probably get#but they're doing it out of love and hope#so plz if you are unsafe and can get to one of these states#they really will help you#queue
