Partner Action: Condemn RFK Jr’s False Report on Transgender Youth Treatment

On May 1st, the Department of Health and Human Services, led by anti-vaxxer RFK Jr., released a report on “Treatment for Pediatric Gender Dysphoria” that promotes unproven conversion therapy instead of evidence-based gender-affirming care. The American Academy of Pediatrics condemned the report, calling it a misrepresentation of medical consensus, while the AMA urged states not to ban gender-affirming care.

RFK Jr. has used his position to advance pseudoscience against vaccines and biomedical science. This report endangers the health and well-being of transgender and gender-diverse children.

 👉 Demand your representatives hold RFK Jr. and the Trump administration accountable for spreading misinformation and targeting vulnerable youth.

  • Find your representative

  • Contact Senator Durbin at 312-353-4952 or at other numbers listed here

to express my outrage over RFK Jr.’s false and dangerous misinformation about the treatment of pediatric gender dysphoria and the Trump administration’s attacks on the transgender community. I ask that [REP/SEN NAME]

[CHOOSE 1-3 actions:]

  • demand the revocation of HHS’s dangerously false report on the “Treatment for Pediatric Gender Dysphoria,” (and)

  • forcefully condemn the Trump administration’s anti-transgender Executive Orders, (and)

  • demand the immediate resignation of RFK Jr. as the head of HHS. His actions directly threaten the health and well-being of all Americans.

Partner Action: Protect Our Care Phone Bank

It's going to take every one of us to fight back against Congressional budget cuts -- join us for a phonebank to engage key communities!

Congress is considering devastating federal spending cuts to vital programs like Medicaid, SNAP, and education. We must push back because these cuts would fund tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy, leaving everyday Illinoisans struggling.

Can you join us to call constituents in key Illinois districts and patch them through to their Representatives' offices? No experience necessary -- we'll help you get started with a quick tutorial at the beginning. All you need is a PC with reliable internet connection!

👉 Join the phone bank every Friday at noon!
