Contact Your Representative
Take some time to go over what is happening in the USA. So much is happening on a legislative level -- it isn't a fun subject. It’s hard to fully grasp how MUCH of it there is.

• A guide to contacting and educating representatives about trans issues: https://transequality.org/sites/default/files/docs/resources/MakeYourVoiceHeard2013.pdf

• Website to find ways to contact representatives in any state: https://theallycoalition.org/tac-action-center/ (use the search bar at the bottom to find any specific location)

• Legislation tracker for anti-LGBTQ+ and even more specifically, anti-trans legislature. https://freedomforallamericans.org/legislative-tracker/anti-transgender-legislatio

• Another legislative one with a good visual: https://www.aclu.org/legislative-attacks-on-lgbtq-rights
  This one even tracks the subject of the bill, which is super helpful!
