This year we decided to add an additional pin to our Protest Collection as trans and gender diverse individuals throughout the Country, and World are continuing to be ruthlessly and relentlessly attacked.

This year alone we have had 555 anti-LGBTQIA+ bills introduced in 49 States and the House of Representatives, of those; 78 passed, 108 failed, 130 have passed through at least one chamber, and 373 are still active.

Over 220 of those bills specifically target transgender and non-binary individuals, also a record, and more than thirty “bathroom bills,” a figure that exceeds the number filed in 2022.

This is not about bathrooms.
