βFinally some good news. We need more states to do this and be proactive in creating sanctuary for trans and gender non-conforming people.

@them Minnesota Governor Tim Walz just signed an executive order to make the state a refuge for trans people who flee their homes in order to seek lifesaving transition-related care.
On Wednesday, Executive Order 23-03 was signed by the governor, which orders state agencies to protect people seeking gender-affirming healthcare in Minnesota, as well as the entities that provide it. State agencies are also specifically forbidden from providing information or assisting investigations to penalize trans people and their allies for seeking transition-related care. Judgments from other states that terminate parental rights because the parent provided their child with transition-related care will not be recognized by the state of Minnesota, and the state will also refuse to comply with subpoenas that seek information about trans people who travel to Minnesota to obtain care.
Additionally, the executive order tasks the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) with preparing a report that summarizes the literature on the safety and effectiveness of gender-affirming care, to be presented to the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and Legislature by the end of the year. The order also strengthens protections for insurance coverage of transition-related care and mandates MDH to refuse to approve HMO contracts that discriminate against people on the basis of sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression.
Noting that other states have βcurtailed access to, or even criminalizedβ transition-related care, Walzβs executive order recognizes that βthese actions pose a grave threat to the health of LGBTQIA+ individuals by preventing them from affirming their gender identities through safe and scientifically proven treatments.β

βPresident @joebiden played politics with our planet and our future. Shame on him. And this fight is not over. See you in court @potus.
Press release from the #StopWillow coalition:
βToday the Biden administration approved ConocoPhillipsβ Willow project in the western Arctic of Alaska, locking in oil and gas drilling and massive greenhouse gas emissions for decades. The decision undermines Bidenβs climate promises and again demonstrates how political and industry interests put βbusiness as usualβ before the health of people and the planet.
Authorization of the project comes after a deficient supplemental environmental review process that failed to assess the intense and cumulative impacts of the project on Arctic communities, lands and water, wildlife, and the global climate. The harm to communities and climate will be massive as the project turns into the industrial hub ConocoPhillips has always sought.
Overwhelming public and scientific input has demonstrated that Willow poses a serious threat to the Arctic region. Willow will pollute water and air, disrupt animal migrations, destroy habitat, and result in the release of around 239 million metric tons of greenhouse gasses over the projectβs 30-year lifespan. The resulting infrastructure is expected to result in additional development that would magnify Willowβs negative environmental impacts.
If built, Willow will be the largest new oil extraction project on federal lands in the United States. It will have devastating impacts to the entire western Arctic region, posing serious health, environmental, and food security threats to nearby Alaska Native communities.
Today, the Biden administration bowed to industry and political power rather than prioritizing land protections, Indigenous communities, and meaningful climate action and leadership.β

Leaked recordings of phone calls of LA officials spouting blatant bigotry just came out. They need to step down and be held accountable.
Letβs also remember the larger context with these reminders from @richiereseda
