THIS SHOULD ENRAGE ALL OF US!
The Trump administration is considering a new “religious freedom” rule that would allow healthcare workers to refuse to treat LGBT patients.“

He’s done more than “consider a rule”
He’s even created an entire division that fields complaints that these people would make in case someone tries to strong arm them to do it!
He even created a website hot button that use a help desk so it can get you a representative!
We knew they’d try harder after the trans band failed.
this is murder.
Trans women have already been denied care by emergency responders, and died as a result, that has already happened. Now that fucker wants to bring that back, with legal protections for killers who do that.
That is murder. Make no mistake, this will kill people.
While this will affect all LGBT people this is specifically targeted at trans people. Now instead of just having to worry about getting basic gender affirmation care, a trans person (or any other LGBT person for the matter) can just be left in the middle of the road bleeding out after a Nazi tries to kill us.
This is also way more than just a theoretical as stated in the article Bush-era legislature that allowed this allowed at least one transgender woman to die, as she could not get to a doctor in time!
Trump will give healthcare workers the right to refuse to treat LGBT people
