Because of Donald Trump's crusade against LGBTQI+ people & other minorities, federal agencies have scrubbed their websites of information about gender, sex, and other topics the White House thinks should be off-limits to the American people. This is censorship, full stop.

CDC’s clinical guidelines for PrEP — which all but eliminates HIV risk — have been removed from CDC’s website. This is what you get when you search. Expanding PrEP access is essential to end HIV infections. They want people to get HIV as punishment for being immoral.

On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we pause to honor the 6 million Jews murdered and countless others silenced forever because of who they were and what they believed. These unfathomable horrors challenge us all to rededicate ourselves to our sacred duty: Never Again.

As transgender people are viciously targeted by right wing political leaders in ways that inevitably lead to harassment & violence, we need to have their backs. Today I’m announcing legislation to protect trans people’s privacy & reduce the ability of bigots to target them. 🧵
