    Re: how they can go after your access - it’s gonna probably get more annoying for insurance to cover meds and shit if they feel like it.

    TAYLOR: There are several programs that would address health care for transgender people. These are Medicare, Medicaid, VA. And then there are things like the Affordable Care Act, where you have nondiscrimination protections that may include trans people, depending on how the term sex is being interpreted. So the president can issue an executive order to instruct agencies to do this. And one of the things that we know with executive action on trans rights is it’s not sticky. Executive action is going to be very impermanent.
