Right now, the U.S. Senate is considering a dangerous and discriminatory bill: the so-called “Health Care Freedom for Patients Act of 2025” (S.3386). Despite its name, this legislation would take away essential health care from the people who need it most.
S.3386 would gut access to transition-related health care and abortion care, block federal funding for medically necessary treatments, restrict coverage for immigrants and asylum seekers, and even endorse non-consensual surgeries on intersex youth. These policies would have harmful and far-reaching consequences.Will you contact your senators and tell them to vote NO on this bill?
Transgender people across the country already face steep economic and geographic barriers to accessing timely, medically necessary care—and these barriers are even worse for those who embody multiple intersections of marginalization. The health care targeted in this bill is supported by decades of peer-reviewed research. Nearly every major medical association affirms that this care is safe, effective, and essential.
This bill isn’t about protecting patients. It’s about denying people the health care they rely on to survive and thrive.
