I’ll name a few of the things people in the US are working on that would
be a significant benefit to trans people’s well-being: decriminalizing
prostitution, stopping federal programs where local police forces turn
immigrants they arrest over to the immigration authorities, ending
exclusion of trans health care from health insurance programs, getting
rid of surgery requirements for changing gender on ID, decriminalizing
drugs, ending “3 strikes” laws, getting rid of sex offender registries.
These are all vitally important efforts to address the violence trans
people are facing, and they are part of broader trans political visions
of a world without prisons, border, or poverty.
