In a historic moment for the Transgender, Gender Diverse, and Intersex (TGI) community, The TransLatin@ Coalition is overjoyed to celebrate the recent passage and signing of two groundbreaking bills, AB 1487 and AB 1163, by California Governor Gavin Newsom. These vital pieces of legislation, sponsored by the California Transgender, Gender Diverse, and Intersex Policy Alliance (CTPA) Health and Human Services Network, represent a significant step forward in the fight for equality and dignity.

The TransLatin@ Coalition as a founding member of the California Transgender, Gender Diverse, and Intersex Policy Alliance (CTPA), a leading advocate for the specific and often overlooked issues that transgender, gender-nonconforming, and intersex (TGI) individuals face, expresses its vehement condemnation of Governor Newson's lack of support for our TGI community. Despite California's reputation for promoting freedom and equality, and passing many pro “LGBTQ” bills, we demand that the Governor stops leaving the TGI community last.
