Transitics' Comprehensive Anti-Trans Political Action & Litigation Map, States & Territories A–M
Tracking and mapping transphobic laws, policies, and orders and the litigation surrounding trans people across the United States
Amid political attacks around the country, it can be hard to keep track of everything going on. Those tools that can help us are limited in their scope or outdated without routine maintenance. In this day and age, ease of access to information is more important than ever. So when it takes 50 hours to compile this data, something isn’t right. That’s why I’ve created the Comprehensive Anti-Trans Political Action & Litigation Map, or CATPALM.
CATPALM compiles every policy (and the litigation on the issue) in every state & territory in one place. And next to each policy, you’ll find reliable citations to official laws, policies, and orders if you want to read everything for yourself! I want this to be as accurate as possible, so if you find my sourcing to be incomplete, please let me know.
For now, the policy areas covered are the following: Gender-Affirming Care Access, Sports Restrictions, Medicaid Coverage, Birth Certificate Amendments, ID Changes, X Marker Recognition, and Bathroom Access. In the near future, expect to see updates compiling Prison Gender Policies & HRT Access, Conversion Therapy, and Hate Crime Laws. If you would like to see something else covered, leave a comment!
