Coordinated Protests Hit Attack On Transgender Youth Health Care
New York – During evening rush hour, the Gender Liberation Movement and ACT UP NY held protests outside three New York City health care monopolies that cut off gender-affirming care to transgender youth earlier this year: Mount Sinai, NYU Langone and NewYork-Presbyterian.
The sudden end of this life-saving care came in response to executive orders and threats by the Trump administration. None of these carried the weight of law or official regulations.
New York State law provides legal protections against persecution for youth, families and health care providers. That didn’t matter to the hospital profiteers.
