An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Fund Pediatrician Training and Don't Punish Trans People While You Do It

18 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

I am your constituent and I want you to know that Federal authorization for the Children’s Hospitals Graduate Medical Education Program, which trains more than half of pediatric specialists and almost half of general pediatricians nationwide, lapsed on Sept. 30, 2023. WE HAVE A SHORTAGE OF DOCTORS AND THAT INCLUDES PEDIATRICIANS. I am asking you to pass the Labor-HHS funding bill without gender affirming care restrictions at eh increased $400 million level. Children need doctors and this is how they get trained to do their job. You were elected to help people not punish them.
