Post-Election 2024 Anti-Trans Risk Assessment US Map
Post-Election 2024 Anti-Trans Risk Assessment US Map
The risk of severe anti-trans legislation has increased nationwide for transgender youth and adults.
A resource that shows how friendly/unfriendly US State laws are to trans ppl. Split into two maps, one for adults and one for minors.
Trans people are very welcome here in western Washington. The more, the merrier! Don't settle east of the Cascades, though.
Anyone got a map I can actually look at? Wont let me zoom in on mobile.
Edit: nevermind got it. Here link for others.
I'm so glad I can feel safe here. I love this place.
Best place in the country!
Any advice for people looking to move to that end of the country? Ive lived in England so the rain doesnt bug me.
Buy a Subaru. Never use an umbrella. Become a coffee snob.
In all seriousness, the west coast is a beautiful place, so the best thing you can do is get some good gear and a pass and go out hiking, biking, and generally explore all over.
Sadly a lot of are cities aren’t as walkable as the ones in Europe, but Seattle and Portland have a decent transit system at least.
What field do you work in?
If you work in tech, there are a lot of jobs available. I think we've still got a teacher shortage as well. And the police force is hiring aggressively in Seattle, though I doubt that's your profession if you're here. There's always a shortage of restaurant workers, but they won't be hiring someone who's not in-state already.
Know anyone hiring in tech?
There are always tech companies hiring here. We're the biggest tech area in the US after Silicon Valley.
^ that too. Will install software patches 4 food!
Had to fly the kids back to the US to visit their grandfather one last time and we made damn sure the flights did not go through the southern hubs.
OTOH my mother acknowledged our son who used to be their granddaughter...so goddamn if that wasn't heartwarming.
One last time?
I'm really happy that it's working out this way for them. My grandfather never got to meet me as myself.
Stay safe my brothers, sisters and enby-pals!
I'm in the dark dark :(
so am i :(. Grew up here and lived here most of my life.
I am fortunate enough to be able to finally get out of here to one of the bluest places later this year if things go to plan.
I'm stuck here for collage for 4 years at least :(
I wish you luck in your future though! 🩷
sigh :c
I am so lucky to be in a cyan state. I want to know how I can help my fellow trans folks who are trapped in states that are actively targeting them.
If you are in SoCal, this project is looking for people with spare rooms https://transrescueaction.org/
