Is 185 not already high enough? It seems odd to characterize "anti trans (healthcare) bills stayed essentially stagnant at ~185" as anything other than "that's a shit ton of discriminatory legislature aimed squarely at trans people's access to healthcare." Also, unless I'm reading that website very wrong, that's only healthcare bills. The total targeting trans people is in the 600s for 2023 and 2024, with a 9% increase from 2023 to 2024.

Trump made headlines just yesterday for fresh comments promising anti trans executive actions on day one of his presidency. I truly can't figure out the logic behind this post. Anti trans legislation isn't going anywhere, it's increasing actually, and no one should think that Republicans are focusing any less on trans people today than they were a week or a month or a year ago.

I'm all for seeking sources of joy and optimism, but ignorance to reality isn't a viable path forward.
