If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

Cis allies of trans people can certainly speak up louder right now. Trans rights are human rights. Donald Trump and the GOP are hot garbage and can get fucked. They will not win. Elevate trans voices, be there for your trans friends, use your cis privilege to help in any way that you can.
