81 Democrats Voted To Pull Care From Service Member's Trans kids. Here Are The Names.

81 Democrats have voted for the NDAA bill, which has an anti-trans amendment pulling care from trans youth enrolled in TriCare, the first national anti-trans bill of the modern era.

The National Defense Authorization Act, which enacts the first federal anti-LGBTQ+ law in over a decade and targets the trans kids of military service members with bans on coverage of their gender affirming care, just passed with 81 Democratic votes. This bill and the votes of several Democrats are seen as a severe betrayal of transgender constituents.

The provision in this bill is similar to a version of earlier proposals introduced in the Senate version of the bill prior to the election. Those Senate provisions not only targeted transgender youth but also sought to restrict gender-affirming surgeries for transgender adults in the military. Now, passed by the House, it is expected that this policy will severely disrupt the lives of transgender family of service members, stripping transgender family members of vital healthcare coverage.
