Continue gender affirming care in our state

To: Gov. Ferguson, Sen. Saldaña, Rep. Santos, Rep. Street

From: A constituent in Seattle, WA

February 5

I am writing to urge you to intervene in Childrens Hospital’s decision to indefinitely postpone gender affirming surgeries, and remove the page on their website about gender affirming care. It is essential that in our safest cities and states providers not comply preemptively with inhumane, anti-trans executive orders. In an increasingly hostile world, children, teens and their families throughout the entire region are counting on the supports they seek in Seattle. Gender affirming care is suicide prevention for trans young people and this has been proven again and again. Children’s needs support, encouragement and pressure from both elected officials and the community at large to hold their ground and provide hope and safety for those who need it.
