STARTING SOON: Senators are about to debate H. 4624, the Anti-Trans Healthcare Bill. Follow along here for updates on the debate ⬇️ and if you haven't already called today, call your Senator and demand they oppose this harmful, discriminatory bill: p2a.co/peny1hc
With the legislative session nearing the end, some lawmakers have prioritized an attack on the rights and healthcare of transgender South Carolinians. Please tell your senator to vote NO on H. 4624. CALL: p2a.co/peny1hc WRITE: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-s…
South Carolina's total ban on gender-affirming health care for trans youth could BE LAW as soon as this week. There's still time to contact your lawmaker and urge them to vote NO on House Bill 4624 ⬇️

TAKE ACTION: Debate on H. 4624 will start in less than 2 hours & this is your LAST chance to tell your Senator to vote no on this harmful bill. Trans healthcare access is on the line – take 2 mins to call & demand they stop this bill before it’s too late. p2a.co/peny1hc
Our organizers have been working tirelessly to prepare for tomorrow’s vote on H. 4624, the Anti-Trans Healthcare Ban, & we have an impactful art activation planned for those joining us in Columbia tomorrow. Support our work by calling your Senator tonight: p2a.co/peny1hc
"I see how lifesaving gender-affirming care can be for trans young people who need it. I know how devastating it will be for them [if access] to this care is taken away," ─ Natalie Frazier, gender-affirming care program director for @PPSouthAtlantic. postandcourier.com/opinion/commen…

🚨 TOMORROW: House Bill 4624, which would ban gender-affirming health care for trans youth, will be up for debate. There's no time to waste. 🏳️⚧️ Contact your lawmaker and urge them to vote NO on this bill: bit.ly/TransYouthSC
Tomorrow, we’ll be at the State House to show lawmakers exactly who H. 4624, the Anti-Trans Healthcare Bill, will hurt if they pass this cruel bill. We need as many folks as possible to join us from 10:45AM-2PM – sign up to help fight H. 4624 in Columbia 🗣southcarolinaunited.org/fighth4624
It’s been a tough week for trans youth and adults in SC, and we’re sending love and support from the Upstate to the Low Country. Show your support for trans healthcare access – call your Senator to demand they vote NO on H. 4624 before next week: p2a.co/peny1hc
Y’ALL MEANS ALL 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ While the gender affirming care ban has been set for debate next Tuesday, it can still be stopped — but we NEED YOU to call your state senator! It’s critical that Dems stick together & Republicans hear us: Call EVERYONE! p2a.co/peny1hc
Gender-affirming care bans have real impacts on people's lives. Swipe through to read statements from parents of transgender youth about the experience of living under gender-affirming care bans and traveling to get gender-affirming care for their kids.
H. 4624 has been approved for special order, meaning debate on the bill and a vote will be prioritized for next week, as early as Tuesday. Your Senator needs to hear how strongly you oppose this bill NOW – call to demand they vote NO on #H4624⬇️ p2a.co/peny1hc

Facts: - gender reassignment surgery doesn’t happen on SC minors - 71% across the political spectrum don’t believe gov’t involvement in medical decisions between parents/doctors/children is appropriate Senate majority is hellbent on banning access to trans medical care anyway.

Trans people belong in South Carolina. We're here today fighting for the rights off all South Carolinians. We aren't going anywhere.
We’re glad trans youth and their families will have their private medical records protected, and this invasive request from TX AG Paxton has been withdrawn. SB14 and other laws like it do NOT prohibit people from traveling out of state to receive care. texastribune.org/2024/04/22/tex…

South Carolina, today is a fantastic day to call your state senator and ask them to oppose the gender affirming care ban (H4624). This legislation will harm vulnerable kids, and it’s a massive gov’t overreach into the rights of parents! It takes 1 minute!p2a.co/peny1hc

After debating unrelated bills today, the Senate has put the trans youth healthcare ban (H. 4624) on special order and adjourned for the day. We anticipate they'll debate the bill when they return on Tuesday.
We're getting word that H. 4624, a ban on medically necessary care for trans youth, could come up for Senate debate as soon as today. Please call and email your state senator now. actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-s…
It is profoundly disappointing that today the SC Senate gave special order to H4624, a profoundly unpopular and harmful anti-trans healthcare bill, while continuing to refuse to use the same power to give H3014, the Hate Crime Bill, a vote in the Senate (after years of waiting).
Y’ALL MEANS ALL 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ While the gender affirming care ban has been set for debate next Tuesday, it can still be stopped — but we NEED YOU to call your state senator! It’s critical that Dems stick together & Republicans hear us: Call EVERYONE! p2a.co/peny1hc
