Safeguard rights of transgender youth, uphold American values
To: Pres. Biden
From: A constituent in Long Beach, CA
December 25, 2024
The president's decision to sign legislation that marginalizes transgender youth of military families is outrageous and indefensible. It represents a shameful violation of the basic rights and human dignity of these vulnerable young people. This law denies vital medical care and exerts unconscionable government intrusion into deeply personal matters. Such blatant discrimination and harm inflicted upon trans kids with parents serving our country is nothing short of a moral travesty. Immediate action must be taken to reverse this appalling injustice and ensure the wellbeing of every transgender child is fully protected under the law.
