Description

Washington is a state that supports and protects transgender rights.

But campaign promises from the incoming Trump administration are causing concern for the community.

Access to gender-affirming care and legal protections could be restricted.

We’ll hear from KUOW health reporter Eilis O’Neill about how the local trans community is preparing for potential new policy.
