It's exhausting being #transgender in the US. Every day another state works to block gender affirming care for trans youth. Many have proposals in committees to ban rights and gender affirming care for all trans people. Some are actively pushing to reverse gender marker and name changes, making whatever appears on the ORIGINAL birth certificate immutable. Some are looking to ban whatever they consider "cross gender presentation". All of which punishable by law.

The children are just the start. It's the easy entryway. Bigotry disguised as concern. It's the Conservative playbook. Most recently this started with protecting girls from having "transgenders" play sports with them. Or changing in the same lockers. Then being allowed to be called girls. Or by their "new" names. Now it's the medical care they receive and who approved or provided that care. And it's moving on to the trans adults.
