Hey there, it's Michael.
A quick request before today's show.
In the past couple of years,
nearly half the states in the U.S. have passed bans on gender-affirming care for kids.
The Trump administration is now targeting that care,
and in the coming weeks, the Supreme Court is expected to weigh in.
Amidst all of that,
some of our colleagues here on the Times audio team have been working on a project about where this care came from.
who it was meant to help, and how it got pulled into a political fight that could end it altogether.
The team making that show is looking to hear from kids and parents about their direct experience with gender-affirming care.
If that's you, what has your experience been with pediatric gender medicine?
How have recent government actions affected you?
And how are you feeling about the future?
