“Today the United States Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act. This is a great victory for transgender Americans! We celebrate this ruling and the benefits it will have in improving access to quality, affordable health care for everyone - without discrimination. (Stay tuned for more analysis!)

 

The Affordable Care Act includes several provisions that will directly help ensure that transgender people have fair access to competent care including prohibiting insurance plans from discriminating based on gender identity.”
