We know Trump’s anti-trans executive action is creating fear, confusion, and chaos for so many in our community.

Here is what we know about federal identity documents as of Thursday, Jan. 23, 2025. We will continue to provide updates from our experts as more information is released.

Fly your flag higher than ever.

In one of his first official actions this week, Trump’s Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, banned pride flags from flying at U.S. embassies — another shameful attempt to scare LGBTQ+ people back into the closet.

We're not going anywhere. We are here, we are strong, and we are FIGHTING BACK.

LGBTQ+ excellence is on full display in this year’s Academy Awards nominations! 🎞️ Congratulations to all of the q***r artists shining their talents on the silver screen.

I guess we found out when he thought America was great.

We are going to push back on this and every harmful action Trump takes to creates fear and chaos for our community. Take action with us: https://hrc.im/100

The Trump-Vance administration has kicked off their harmful agenda and it will take ALL of us to protect our hard-won freedoms.

We are going to show up in court, in the halls of Congress, and throughout our local communities to protect LGBTQ+ equality. Take action with us: hrc.im/100

Yesterday, Donald Trump signed many executive actions that challenge our fundamental freedoms and hard-won rights. HOWEVER: These orders have yet to be implemented and will face legal challenges. You are NOT required to comply with them yet.

Our community will show up to protect LGBTQ+ equality. Take action: hrc.im/100

01/19/2025

Tomorrow is the beginning of a long and dark road ahead — and we’re here, we’re strong, and we’re fighting back.

Our movement has faced hard times, and each time, we have come out stronger on the other side. We must stay informed, take care of ourselves, and remain connected to our community.

Knowledge is power. With a new administration starting on Monday, it’s a perfect time for a refresher on executive orders and how they impact your daily life.

Question for Congress: How would you plan to enforce a national ban on trans kids in youth sports?

Passing this law could require dangerous enforcement that would violate the safety and privacy of all girls. This bill must not pass.

Tell your Senators: Leave trans kids alone and vote NO.

Tell Congress: Stop Wasting Time Attacking Trans Student Athletes!

Artists and advocates are showing up big at our HRC Greater New York Dinner! 🏳️‍🌈 We’re excited to come together as a community, celebrate our resilience, and continue the fight for full equality.

Everyone deserves to feel supported and safe online. ’s changes to its content moderation policies are dangerous for our community: identify-based harassment, rampant misinformation, and abuse online and in-person. While we still strongly urge Meta to change course, it is up to us to take action — and together, we will rise to the challenge. ➡️ hrc.im/meta

Thank you to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for showing up for our trans community today and for all our girls.

Passing a national ban on trans kids in youth school sports could lead to dangerous enforcement that would violate the safety and privacy of all girls and subject them to harassment and humiliation.

This bill must not pass. Tell your Senators to stop this bill now: hrc.im/nosportsban

01/14/2025

BREAKING: Sports should be fair, open, and safe for EVERYONE, but the House of Representatives just passed a bill banning trans kids from playing school sports, which would force schools to violate the safety and privacy of all girls. We cannot let our leaders subject girls to scrutiny and interrogation.

Tell your Senators to leave trans kids alone and get back to lowering costs: hrc.im/nosportsban

01/14/2025

Sports teach our kids teamwork, create a sense of belonging, and help youth grow into well-rounded adults. We should want more kids to play sports, not put up more barriers.

We deserve leaders who prioritize fixing our country’s problems instead of launching attacks on trans kids that hurt all kids and subject girls to scrutiny and interrogation. hrc.im/nosportsban

01/13/2025

We all want school sports to be fair and safe. But Congress will soon vote on a federal sports ban that would violate the safety and privacy of all girls.

Americans are clear that they want Congress to focus on the rising costs of housing, food, and health care — not politically-motivated attacks that harm our community. Tell Congress to get back to business and leave trans kids alone: hrc.im/nosportsban

Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club” is an LGBTQ+ anthem that perfectly threads the needle of needing to leave home to find yourself and still loving your home and your family. Listen to how Chappell’s parents feel about the song and their daughter:

If enacted, the provision of National Defense Authorization Act to take away health care from military families, would be the first anti-LGBTQ+ federal law since the 1990s and the era of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell and the Defense of Marriage Act. We can still stop this cruel effort to take away best practice, medically necessary health care from trans youth of military families. Tell your Senator to support military families by texting VOTENO to 472472.

Anti-equality House leaders are using an annual defense bill to try to strip away health care from the transgender kids of our military families — the very families who have committed themselves to serving our country. All families deserve access to the health care they need. Text VOTENO to 472472 to call your Senator and tell them to support military families.

We are feeling 💚Wicked 🩷 thanks to these inspiring words from Elphie herself, Cynthia Erivo, at our 2024 National Dinner.

36 lives were lost to senseless violent acts. 36 lives were cut short. 36 people with loved ones, dreams, hopes. Each of them had a name. Each of them had a story. We remember them today and always. https://hrc.im/transdayofremembrance
