Every single person deserves compassionate and evidence-based healthcare. Please help our trans ohana and friends get the care they need to thrive. Mahalo.
Gender-affirming care saved my life. It is not just healthcare—it is survival. As attacks on trans rights escalate across the mainland and federal government, Hawaii must remain a place of safety and dignity. Governor Green, I urge you to do everything in your power to protect our community: safeguard access to care, shield providers from those who seek to punish them for offering essential treatment, and defend families supporting their loved ones. Trans people in Hawaii deserve to live, thrive, and receive the care we need without fear.
Our keiki deserve high quality, evidence-based medical care. Medical decisions should be made by the family in conjunction with their healthcare provider and not by somebody 2500 miles away in Washington, D.C. As a pediatrician I know the benefits of providing gender-affirming cafe, and the consequences of children not having access to it.
My child is trans & needs gender affirming care completely covered by quest. Quest does not cover egg harvesting or the speech therapy he needs, so he can start the hormones to transition.
A society with merely two genders removes expression of self. A law like this will only oppress and people will still find ways to identify as more than the black and white gender roles that have been stapled onto the world.
Although I am cis, so many of my friends and even my own sibling are trans/nonbinary. I would feel so frustrated if they couldn’t be themselves anymore.
Trans people have always and will always exist. Denying rights for kids in schools is downright evil. I had to be homeschooled because the school I was at was just too dangerous. A kid shouldn't have to fear for their lives in a public place like a school. Ever.
