She says it’s no coincidence that he mentions trans people frequently. It’s foundational.

Two hospitals in Colorado, Denver Health and Children’s Hospital Colorado, have shut down their healthcare for trans youth. Many hospitals are over-complying to appease the Trump administration and not lose funding.
